[You had a conversation with Guo Zhao and asked for advice on the skills of controlling the heat when shaping the casting. Guo Zhao answered it for you in detail. After you received the advice, you felt like you were waking up from a dream. Your understanding of the casting became more profound. Experience in casting.
34.】
[When you asked Guo Zhao for advice on how to judge the timing of starting a furnace, Guo Zhao answered it for you in detail. You got the advice and woke up from a dream, with a deeper understanding of the casting experience. Casting experience 22.]<
/p>
........
The two chatted until late at night before leaving.
Shen Mo said goodbye to Guo Zhao, and when he returned to his room, he opened the destiny attribute panel and his eyes fell on the experience bar of the casting.
[Casting: No quality (288/500)]
"The experience bar is over half, and progress has been going smoothly during this period."
Although he has not officially started making weapons, he already has 288 experience points.
Being able to obtain so many experience points is naturally attributed to the various knowledge and teachings in the "Basic Forging Book", as well as Guo Zhao's personal guidance without any secrets.
"But...working behind closed doors can only go so far."
"Let's start the official casting tonight."
Shen Mo took out a breath and thought in his mind.
What you see on paper is always shallow, and you don’t know the difficulty until you have experienced it.
Just reading and studying, as well as asking Guo Zhao for advice, can bring him to the limit of casting experience.
If you want to continue to gain experience, you can only make progress by forging weapons with your own hands.
"Click! Click!"
He took off his outer robe and took off his inner armor: "Let's start with this inner armor!"
Rubbing the inner armor of the "Heart Protector" with his palm, he looked at the cracks on it and thought to himself, let's repair these cracks first to practice.
He spent thirty spiritual stones to purchase this inner armor from an inner disciple in Fang City.
In terms of grade, it belongs to the lower grade of Xuan grade.
But when he first bought it, it was already seriously damaged. Later, when he was hunting a two-headed silver-ringed python in Zhao's spiritual field, he was hit hard by the two-headed python again.
At this moment, this "heart-protecting" inner armor is in tatters.
The original good protective ability has been lost by 70% and is close to being scrapped.
He turned his palm over and took out several light yellow, crystal clear ores from the Qiankun Bag.
Black Crystal Mineral Essence!
It was what he and Chen Mengze got from the night patrol when they encountered Shi Ling and killed him.
This material is an excellent all-purpose material for casting, and it is perfect to use it to repair the inner armor of the "Heart Protector".
"It needs to be smelted first before it can be repaired."
He took out another furnace for casting.
This stove belongs to Guo Zhao.
For some forging masters, the forging furnace is dispensable.
They can use their palms as furnaces to burn gold and black iron.
But for beginners, such a chic and wanton method is too subtle.
It is completely impossible to master, so the forge is indispensable.
Shen Mo has never bought a forging tool, so naturally there is no forging furnace to use.
So, I asked Guo Zhao to borrow it. Not only the stove, but also many tools and materials needed for forging weapons, he borrowed them all.
Because he wanted something from Shen Mo, Guo Zhao was very generous to him.
After setting up the stove, he piled the firewood underneath, and then tapped it with his fingertips.
"Boom."
A faint blue flame suddenly boiled in the dry wood.
The fire was initially weak, but soon spread and turned into a fierce fire, causing the inner wall of the stove to gradually heat up and gradually turn a deep red color.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
He put the four prepared pieces of black crystal mineral essence into the furnace one after another.
Afterwards, they waited on the sidelines for the Xuanjing mineral essence to be burned into Xuanjing molten iron.
This process takes a long time.
As a caster, I can only wait patiently at this moment.
An hour.
Two hours.
Three hours.
Shen Mo stood in front of the stove, adding some new firewood from time to time, and stood on tiptoe, looking eagerly at what was going on inside the stove.
"Zi! Zhi! Zhi!"
After three hours of roasting, the black crystal mineral essence finally showed some signs of melting.
But this is really just showing signs. If you want to wait for it to completely turn into molten iron crystal, you still have to wait for a while.
"It's really too slow."
After waiting for such a long time, Shen Mo couldn't help but lose his temper. He thought to himself: "In the future, if I succeed in casting weapons, I need to find a way to get special fire. Otherwise, the efficiency of casting weapons made of ordinary fire in this world will be very low."
Too slow."
Forging weapons and refining alchemy, these two major professions require flames.
In the world of immortality, flames also have different qualities and levels.
The better the quality of the flame, the more helpful it will be for casting tools and alchemy.
According to Shen Mo's current knowledge in Linjiang Sect, the flames in the world of immortality are divided into three levels.
The first level is earth fire.
The second level is spiritual fire.
The third level is heavenly fire.
Earth fire, as the name suggests, is a flame that grows from the earth. Some masters of alchemy, or those who are masters of metal casting, will spend a lot of money in auction houses and even travel across mountains and ridges to find their favorite earth fire.
Conquer.
In addition to the earth fire that grows naturally in strange places, some sects that hire and train a large number of alchemists and casters will also set up spirit gathering arrays and use special formations to generate earth fire.
Let the sect have a special fire land that can be used for alchemy and casting.
Linjiang Sect, as one of the five major immortal sects in the Chiyan Kingdom, has such financial resources.
Shen Mo had heard that there was an underground fire mountain range in each of the sect's Forging Hall and Alchemy Pavilion. The underground flames were generated by spiritual energy and burned underground day and night.
It's just that the Forging Hall and the Alchemy Pavilion are both in the inner gate, and peripheral disciples are not eligible to enter.
Therefore, Shen Mo has never seen it with his own eyes, but has only heard Cao Ren talk about it often before.
Spiritual fire, on the other hand, is a higher level of existence than earthly fire.
Usually it is also the birth of a strange place.
Or it may be that monks practice certain magical powers and practice hard for many years, and then they condense them from their own Dantian.
For example, the legendary Samadhi True Fire belongs to the top level of spiritual fire.
As for the sky fire, it is so rare that there is no record of its existence in Chiyan.
The strange flame can not only provide a lot of help to the monks in alchemy and weapon casting, but also increase their own combat power.
The benefits are endless.
But it’s not that easy to get it.
Even the most low-level earth fire is very precious.
If Shen Mo wants to get it in the future, it will still take a lot of hard work and many opportunities.
"Zi! Zhi! Zhi!"
Another hour and a half passed, and finally, in the furnace, the four black crystal mineral essences were melted into molten iron black crystals.
The light yellow liquid iron lies quietly in the furnace.
"Enough heat!"
When Shen Mo saw that the iron had been melted successfully, he quickly withdrew the fire and grabbed it with his palm.
"Wow! Wow!"
The molten iron still carrying sparks was held in his palm.
"Next, let's use this black crystal molten iron to repair the inner armor of the "Heart Protector"!"
Shen Mo thought, placed the inner armor on the wooden table, and took out a pen specially designed for carving inscriptions.
"Zi la la!"
The pen was dipped in black crystal molten iron, and under Shen Mo's wave, it turned into a faint fluorescent inscription, hovering in the void.
