Chapter 29: The Obscurity Sword
Training is not only a test of the strength of the body, but also a test of wisdom, dexterity, ability and patience.
This level is far more difficult than the actual polishing, and it is several times more difficult than the first assessment, and the first half is only counted as a rough selection at most.
The flexibility of obsidian is excellent, just like a hard dough, Han Cheng will check a little bit every time he picks a hammer to ensure that the strength of each hammer and the angle of the hammer will not be too different, so he spent a day and thousands of hammers, which was to break the original dough-like obsidian into a long strip, but this is still a few times before the finished product.
The assessment was not terminated at night, and many people were also hurrying to polish, Han Cheng also knew that three days was not enough, because he had never fought a sword at all, and now he had to be careful when he started things, and the time would naturally take longer, but the only thing that relieved him was that his second-layer cultivation of internal strength had a background that many people could not compare to support him to polish this stone, and many people who came in with him either accidentally broke the obsidian in their work, or injured themselves, and there were some who were careful, butThe people who came in with Han Cheng in the morning are not even as fast as Han Cheng's speed until now, and many people have lost their strength, resting while grinding.
Han Cheng's own internal strength also consumed a lot, but fortunately, his internal strength was quite strong, plus he found that he only needed to use internal strength to pick up the hammer when beating, and he didn't need to use internal strength to pull the hammer down.
After grinding for another half night, the sword embryo had already taken shape, Han Cheng felt that he was tired for a day and a little confused, so he was ready to stop and rest for a while, now the sword body is getting longer and thicker, and it is not very much, as long as the strength deviation may ruin his own assessment.
He picked up the drawings and carefully studied the formation pattern carving method on the drawing, then put down the [Fire Gilt Copper Hammer] in his hand, and began to study the carving of the formation pattern with the seal pen knife next to him.
In the middle of the night, most of the disciples really couldn't hold on, and they all lay down next to their stone platforms and fell asleep, Han Cheng rubbed his eyes, glanced into the room, and found that on dozens of stone platforms, only he was still awake and studying, he wanted to sleep for a while, but smiled, but studied carefully.
The passing inspection elder looked at him a few more times: "What's your name?"
"Han Cheng. Han Cheng listened to his question and hurriedly answered.
"Seeing that you have a good heart and a flexible mind, if you can pass the assessment this time, I will go and ask the sect to accept you as a disciple. The elder said with a smile.
Han Cheng felt kind when he saw him so vague, and after feeling surprised by surprise, he nodded continuously.
After this small episode, Han Cheng swept away the trend of lethargy and decadence, and polished it even more carefully.
After practicing the formation in the night, Han Cheng also recovered a certain amount of physical strength and internal strength, and began to polish the sword again, he spent a morning to shape the sword, although the size was not enough to standard, but it was not much worse, he took the sword on the stone platform to grind, which took another four hours to reach the specifications on the drawings, and then he began to prepare the seal carving formation according to the drawings.
However, before the seal carving, he still practiced twice on the stone platform, and then carefully began to carve the seal.
The seal pen knife is different from the hammer, the seal pen knife is very light, but it takes a lot of strength to be able to carve a stroke on the sword body, and there can be no slight deviation when using force, otherwise there will be flaws, so the seal carving work looks light, but in fact it is also very grinding.
It was to engrave these dozens of formation patterns, and Han Cheng spent a whole night, and it was not until the morning of the third day that he completed the formation carving.
Han Cheng held the sword he had polished in his hand, and the corners of his mouth raised a slight arc, although the material of this sword was only an ordinary inferior grade, it was already a very good thing to be regarded as a grade.
"Well, this sword is not bad, and I passed the assessment. The assessment elder of the inspection took the sword handed over by Han Shou in his hand and carefully examined it.
After Han Cheng's heart like a deer just now got this answer, he suddenly jumped even more excitedly, and the second assessment was passed, so there was only the third game left: "There is one more, there is only one, and if there is one more, you can become an official disciple." ”
"Rest for three days, then go to the gladiatorial arena, and after the second level of the assessment is completed, draw lots against the enemy, and take the sword, this is the weapon you use to fight with others. The elder gave him a word of advice, and then he said no more.
Han Cheng held the sword he had sharpened in his hand, and his face was filled with a smile of joy. However, after two days of not fitting his eyes, and the grinding was very exhausting of physical strength and internal strength, he was really sleepy, so he went straight back to his cabin.
"Qingfeng and Ru Meng still haven't come?"
Han Cheng was a little lost, but he was too tired and wanted to sleep too much, so he had no intention of thinking about anything else, and when he returned to the house, he fell asleep on the bed.
This sleep he slept directly for a day and a night, until the next morning he was woken up by an eager shout, he rushed out of the house happily, and saw Liu Qingfeng and Xu Rumeng standing outside the house, seeing them standing side by side outside the house looked so harmonious, he was slightly stunned, and suppressed the slight astonishment on his face under the smile.
"You're here. ”
"Xiao Han, are you okay?" Liu Qingfeng saw that Han Cheng's eyes were red, and he looked like he had cried, he couldn't find Han Cheng in the past few days, but he was in a hurry.
"Little brother, don't be sad, there are still many people who have failed the assessment like you. Xu Rumeng was also concerned, although she didn't like Han Cheng, she naturally couldn't hate Han Cheng, they were the only three children in the village who escaped.
When Han Cheng heard this, he was stunned, and then laughed: "You misunderstood, I have been taking the assessment for the past two days, and I have already passed the second level of assessment." ”
"What!"
Liu Qingfeng and Xu Rumeng spoke in unison, how harmonious and matched such expressions looked.
Isn't it?
Han Cheng looked at their expressions in his eyes, although there was a smile in his eyes, but there was a faint sourness in his heart: "It's true, in two days, I will go to the third assessment." ”
"Really. Liu Qingfeng laughed, and Xu Rumeng also laughed, but her eyes were all on Liu Qingfeng, as if such joy was given to him by Liu Qingfeng, and she didn't seem to notice the pair of simple eyes next to her.
The third assessment is a person-to-person fight, so all the disciples who have passed the assessment need to draw lots together to face the enemy, Han Cheng has two days to adjust, Qingfeng and Ru Meng did not bother him for too long, Qingfeng originally wanted to lend Han Cheng the flying sword he made, but Han Cheng refused, because when he left, the elder explained very clearly, and he could only use the Qingyao sword he fought when fighting.
Liu Qingfeng originally wanted to pass on everything he had learned to Han Cheng, but nothing in the past two days would not play much role for Han Cheng, and he was not allowed to use other magic weapons during the competition, so Liu Qingfeng really couldn't think of what method he should use to help Han Cheng, but emphasized that he would definitely be there to cheer Han Cheng in person during the competition, and would not break his promise.
Xu Rumeng also promised to be together.
"Brother Qingfeng, don't you think that little brother has changed in the past two years? His aura is wrong, he seems to be able to cultivate. After leaving Han Cheng, Xu Rumeng asked Liu Qingfeng at this time.
Liu Qingfeng still had a smile on his face at this time, he was very happy for Han Cheng, because he was the only one in the same village who knew Han Cheng best, and Han Cheng also liked to play with him the most: "This is a good thing, as long as Xiao Han can become an official disciple, I will not participate in this Qingyun Meeting, even if it is a threat of life, I want the old man to accept Han Cheng as a disciple and let him worship the same master with me." ”
"You're crazy! I disagree. ”
"I've made up my mind. ”
