Chapter 1018: Leisurely Yearning
Ling Chuxi relied on her Core of Martial Path and the Mind Training Chant to accurately observe the changes within the iron essence, refining and forging without any scruples. Moreover, Ling Chuxi’s control of True Qi was far better than that of ordinary people. As a result, her consumption of True Qi was less than one-tenth of Gongxi Kuangdao’s.
“Based on feeling…” Gongxi Kuangdao looked at Ling Chuxi blankly. He had said the same thing to Ling Chuxi before, but why did it sound so harsh this time? Wasn’t this nonsense?
“Wait until you have cultivated the Core of Martial Path. Then, maybe you will understand.” Ling Chuxi was not hiding anything, but this was something that could only be understood internally and not verbally. Gongxi Kuangdao had not cultivated the Core of Martial Path yet, so no matter how clearly she explained it, he wouldn’t be able to understand. Moreover, if he started to obsess over the Core of Martial Path, it would negatively impact his cultivation in general in the future.
“I understand.” Gongxi Kuangdao nodded as if he understood but not really.
When it came to the Core of Martial Path, it actually belonged to another realm of martial arts. With his current cultivation, it wouldn’t be of much help even if he knew, so he tactfully didn’t ask any more questions.
“Is refined gold and mithril forged in the same way?” Ling Chuxi easily forged two weapons out of iron essence, one of which had spirituality, so her confidence was greatly boosted. She wanted to try refining the piece of Black Dragon Gold in one go.
“The quality of refined gold and mithril is far higher than that of iron essence, and each has its own unique attributes. Of course, it’s not easy to forge them, so you have to use an array,” said Gongxi Kuangdao.
“An array? Why didn’t you mention that before?” Ling Chuxi looked at Gongxi Kuangdao suspiciously. It turned out that this guy was still keeping secrets.
“How would I know that you would learn the beginner’s level forging so quickly?” Gongxi Kuangdao smiled bitterly.
He didn’t actually mean to keep secrets. In order to detoxify the poison, he had also hoped that Ling Chuxi could learn how to forge refined gold and mithril as soon as possible. That way, he could get out of the sea of bitterness quickly. However, if Ling Chuxi didn’t have the talent, she wouldn’t even be able to learn the beginner’s level of forging, so of course, he didn’t see the need to tell her the secrets of the intermediate forging technique yet.
“Since this is only the basic forging technique, can the intermediate forging technique forge refined gold?” asked Ling Chuxi.
“That’s right. Only by learning the intermediate forging technique and combining it with the array, True Qi, and Lava Fire Crystal can it be forged into a shape. Moreover, due to its special quality and unique attributes, a single piece of refined gold and mithril can’t be forged into a weapon by itself. Take your piece of Black Dragon Gold for example. Its texture is extremely hard, but it’s too rigid and breaks easily. It has to be combined with other refined gold and mithril in order to forge qualified armour. Of course, it can also be combined with ordinary steel or iron essence, but the quality will be greatly reduced,” said Gongxi Kuangdao.
Of course, by ‘greatly reduced’, he actually meant a huge difference in armour quality between those forged purely with refined gold and mithril and those forged with a mixture.
“What about advanced forging techniques?” asked Ling Chuxi curiously. Since there was an intermediate level, there should be an advanced level.
“Advanced forging techniques allow you to condense your own True Qi into True Fire and forge as you wish. You can also bring out the characteristics of refined gold and mithril to the extreme. Moreover, if you use your own True Fire to forge, the success rate of spirit casting will also be greatly increased. It is said that most of the legendary spirit swords and spirit armours are made by advanced forging techniques,” said Gongxi Kuangdao honestly with a face full of fascination.
