Chapter 1008: If It Was Her…
No wonder the Gongxi clan was famous for their forging techniques. It turned out that they had such a treasure. Ling Chuxi knew that even if she had learned their forging techniques, it would be useless without the Lava Fire Crystal. However, she was too lazy to think about it now. She stared at Gongxi Kuangdao’s movements.
“The forging techniques of the Gongxi clan are divided into three steps. The first step is smelting, the second step is forging, and the third step is spirit casting. Watch carefully!” Gongxi Kuangdao moved his True Qi. The Lava Fire Crystal in his hand became brighter and brighter, like a ball of burning flame pulsating in Gongxi Kuangdao’s palm. The heat made Ling Chuxi’s face feel hot. She subconsciously took a step back, but Gongxi Kuangdao didn’t seem to notice it at all. His whole body was focused on controlling his True Qi. The current Gongxi Kuangdao was completely different from his previous fierce appearance.
A red wave of fire jumped out of his palm and swept toward the barely-formed battle blade. Under the high temperature, the iron crystal shone with a unique cold lustre of metal. The wave of fire went up along the body of the sword and finally completely covered the tip of the sword.
“Now it’s shaped.” Gongxi Kuangdao shouted out as he used all of his True Qi. The flames started to show a faint blue colour, and the tip of the blade became red before turning crystal silver. Under the high temperature of the Lava Fire Crystal and the pressure of the True Qi, the blade became increasingly sharper.
Gongxi Kuangdao suddenly stopped and took out another ice-like crystal from his pocket. Under the influence of his True QI, a cold current flowed out of his body as he let out a subtle giggle. The tip of the blade instantly cooled and flashed with a heart-piercing chill. The surface of the crystal turned as bright as a mirror as if it had been carefully polished.
This time, Ling Chuxi didn’t ask much. This crystal must be another rare treasure: the Ice Jade Crystal. Although it was very rare, it was much more common than Lava Fire Crystals.
Only then did Ling Chuxi realize how amazing the Gongxi clan’s forging techniques were. Usually, the forging techniques started with smelting by furnace fire to remove the impurities of the metal through a thousand refinements. Some legendary forging masters even used Earth Fire and Cold Spring to forge, but no matter how many refinements they made, the weapons forged in this way still contained impurities.
The Gongxi clan’s forging techniques on the other hand borrowed the power of Lava Fire Crystal and True Qi, creating an effect that was almost comparable to Cang Yuan Sword spirit’s Spiritual Qi refinement abilities. If one only looked at the tip of the blade, its quality was definitely not inferior to the Luo Chen Sword that had been refined with heavenly thunder. It was not difficult to imagine how powerful this blade would be if it was completely forged.
However, it was clear that this kind of forging method consumed a huge amount of True Qi. It was only the tip of the blade, but Gongxi Kuangdao was already lying on the ground, panting heavily with his tongue out. And yet, his eyes were filled with joy.
“See, this are the forging techniques of our Gongxi clan. Even in ancient times, no forging master could compare to our Gongxi clan forgers.” Gongxi Kuangdao began to brag again after he had calmed down.
“You’re already so tired after refining just one blade tip. How long will it take to completely forge the Eight Wasteland Blade?” asked Ling Chuxi. The Gongxi clan’s forging techniques were indeed marvellous, but it was a little too strenuous. She couldn’t help but think about what would happen if it were her. She wanted to learn the forging techniques as soon as possible and then refine the Luo Chen Sword as soon as possible.
