At this time, Zhang Beichen has been equipped with his new skin [Ingenuity: Zhang Beichen] and uses the skill "Thousands of Times".
He swung the thousand-jin bronze hammer with such force that every hammer hit the iron embryo with a deafening sound!
The so-called steelmaking requires repeated beating and folding. Every time it is hammered for a period of time, it must be reheated to absorb the carbon in the charcoal and reduce impurities. Only in this way can it be tempered into real "steel"!
"The Prime Minister has so much strength!"
"Look at his technique, he is so skilled, it would be difficult to master even if he doesn't have decades of effort! The Prime Minister actually knows the craftsman's forging method?"
"Is he really a swordsmith?"
Among the hundreds of schools of thought, swordsmiths are also among them. The former master swordsmith Ou Yezi forged swords with names such as Zhanlu, Chunjun, Shengxie, Yuchang, Juque, Longyuan, Tai'a, and Gongbu.
sword.
It is said that Gan Jiang is his fellow disciple.
Ordinary craftsmen can only forge ordinary weapons. But swordsmiths can forge spiritual treasures!
Lingbao is a magic weapon that can carry spiritual power and enhance spells and martial arts.
In the process of forging spiritual treasures, it is necessary to continuously use spiritual power to temper the weapons, as well as add some other heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and even temper flesh and blood.
For example, the two swords of Gan Jiang and Mo Xie were forged by the swordsmith with the combination of flesh, blood and essence!
Zhang Beichen has already begun to use his spiritual power with the hammer to forge weapons.
Bai Zang glanced at him. He already knew that Zhang Beichen did have the skills of a swordsmith, and he seemed to be pretty good!
On his side, he has also smelted the bronze material and started to build a bronze weapon.
Zhang Beichen kept beating, and the iron embryo absorbed enough carbon. After removing the impurities, it turned into a piece of steel!
He melted the steel blank again and poured it into the mold.
The craftsmen had already seen something was wrong.
"Why is this sword model so long?"
"With this length, a forged sword can easily break!"
"Yes, if bronze is like this, iron will be easier to break!"
Due to the lack of toughness of bronze, swords cast from bronze are generally short swords, as long as an arm.
What Zhang Beichen forged was a long sword, nearly seven feet long (about one and a half meters).
The swords of this era were generally three feet long, so the sword was also called "three feet". For example, the length of the King of Yue Sword was 55.7 centimeters.
Of course, there are also people who forge longer bronze swords, but such swords are easy to break. The sword body needs to be cast thicker to ensure that it is not easy to break, and it is not light to swing. In this case, it is better to directly forge a spear or
Halberd!
In Zhang Beichen's time and space, it was not until iron smelting technology matured that sword lengths generally reached more than one meter, and the seven-foot sword gradually replaced the three-foot sword!
After Zhang Beichen condensed the sword embryo into shape, he was still beating it repeatedly.
Bai Zang and Bai Mu's father and son no longer paid attention to him, but concentrated on making swords.
For the livelihood of the craftsmen and their own reputation, they must forge a sword that can absolutely crush Zhang Beichen!
Bai Zang and Bai Mu scratched their palms and cast them with blood. They didn't stop until their faces turned pale.
After waiting for the sword embryo to take shape, Bai Zang carved the weapon patterns on the body. These weapon patterns have the magical effect of guiding spiritual power.
Zhang Beichen also mastered this skill after obtaining the memory of Mohist practice in the simulation.
Zhang Beichen also cast it with his own blood. Ying Yin was heartbroken when he saw it, and even wanted to stop it.
When the sword embryo took shape, Zhang Beichen also carved the vessel pattern on it.
The sword embryos of Bai Zang and Bai Mu do not need to be hammered repeatedly like Baishang Steel, and the shape will be faster at this time.
"Clang..." Their swords made a clanking sound, as if they were about to take shape.
"As expected of Master Bai Zang, it seems that another sword is about to be released!" The craftsmen looked at it with anticipation and admiration.
I saw the three-foot bronze sword naturally flying into the sky and suspended in mid-air. Around it, the sword shadows formed by three sword energies were spinning and entwining!
Both Bai Zang and Bai Mu looked happy, "When the sword shadow appears, the sword weapon is completed!"
After the three sword shadows were all integrated into the sword body, the bronze sword glowed with dazzling light, and then returned to darkness.
"The sword is done!" Bai Zang shouted loudly. He took back his sword, and the three-foot bronze sword was displayed in front of everyone. The sword body and hilt were golden, luxurious and dazzling!
Bronze is not blue-grey at the beginning. When it is just forged, it is golden, also called "auspicious gold". After some years, the bronze will become blue-gray after it oxidizes.
For example, in the simulated time and space, King Xiong Zhitong of Chu is wearing gold armor, but it is actually bronze armor!
Everyone came forward to observe and saw that the sword body was thick but the blade was thin. The weapon patterns on the sword were clearly visible, and the cold light flashed on the blade. If they looked at it for a long time, they would even feel that the sword energy hurt their eyes, making people afraid to look directly!
"What a sword!" The craftsmen kept praising it.
Bai Zang even said proudly: "Your Majesty, for the sake of fairness, the sword I forged is called Zhan Tie, and it is a third-grade spiritual treasure. But it is extremely sharp and can cut iron like mud! Please take a look at it!"
Bai Zang deliberately named it Zhan Tie, saying that it could cut off Zhang Beichen's iron sword.
Ying Yin took the sword and looked at it carefully. She held the sword flower in her hand and said: "Both the weight and the feel are just right. Master Bai Zang is indeed a famous swordsmith in Qin!"
Bai Zang's face lit up when he heard this. Bai Mu also looked at Zhang Beichen with a proud look on his face. Any iron weapon could only be reduced to scrap when encountering their iron-cutting sword!
Zhang Beichen had also finished carving the weapon patterns at this time, and his sword was also forged into shape.
"Zheng..." Zhang Beichen's sword also made a clanking sound, flew into the air and stopped. Three sword shadows circled, which meant that it was a third-grade spiritual treasure.
Zhang Beichen only has the cultivation level of the third realm, so he can only forge third-grade spiritual treasures at present.
The craftsmen were a little surprised. Even if it was only a third-grade spiritual treasure, Zhang Beichen's strength in forging exceeded most of them, and he still used iron!
However, the vision did not stop there. Zhang Beichen's sword turned silvery white, which is the color of hundreds of steel refinements. When the shadow of the sword merged into the sword body, a sword energy shot straight into the sky, and a big hole was broken in the roof of the workshop.
!
"What's going on?" The craftsmen looked at this scene in surprise, "Is Jian Cheng more powerful than the Iron Sword?"
The vision has not disappeared yet. It seems to be attracted by the sword energy. The shadow of the black bird falls from the sky, hovering around the long sword, tempering it with spiritual fire! In the sky, there is thunder falling, tempering it!
"The old actor is here again!" If he hadn't known that Xuanniao would appear once something happened to improve the national destiny of Qin, Zhang Beichen would have suspected that Xuanniao had taken his own money!
The emergence of Baishang Steel will undoubtedly greatly improve a country's agriculture, industry and military level, so Xuanniao came out to perform again.
"The black bird is quenching, and the thunder is practicing the sword!" Bai Zang was stunned when he saw this scene, and murmured: "I have been forging swords all my life, and I have never reached such a point! This is the realm that a swordsmith dreams of, and he has actually reached it.
!”
"With one sword, the fortune of the country will increase!" Bai Mu collapsed on the ground, "Why is this happening? This is obviously just an iron weapon, a third-grade spiritual treasure!"
The surrounding craftsmen paid homage directly, and some people were very excited: "Xuanniao's tempered sword is enough to become the sword of princes and kings. This is the sword of kings!"
In the swordsmith's pursuit of swords, there are three realms. The first is the common man's sword, also called the warrior's sword!
Those who hold swords can kill enemies and perform meritorious deeds, becoming generals!
The second type is the sword of the princes, also called the sword of the king. The wielder of the sword can control the destiny of a country, wipe out demons, and guard one side.
The third type is the sword of the emperor, also called the sword of the emperor. The sword holder must unify the world. With one sword shot, the clouds in the four directions move, and no one in the world dares to disobey!
For example, the "Sword of the Emperor" inherited from the Qin State is essentially just a sword of princes and a sword of kings!
At this moment, everyone found that the swords they were wearing all made the same golden sound, as if they were worshiping the captain's sword!
"The sword of the king. Holding this sword is like being blessed by the fate of the Qin State. How can I compete with this iron-cutting skill?" Bai Zang felt a deep sense of frustration.
"No!" Bai Mu was dissatisfied and shouted: "Even if it is the sword of the king, even if it can carry the power of national destiny, it is just an iron sword in the end. A real sword is not a decoration, not an accessory! It drinks blood.
Those who kill the enemy! Even if they cut through iron, they can still cut through it!"
Zhang Beichen's iron sword has been tempered. He held the long sword and said to Bai Mu: "In that case, let's test each other's swords and see if my iron sword is just a decoration!"
Everyone looked at the long sword in his hand. The sword was seven feet long, which was already an exaggeration now! And its blade was much thinner than a bronze sword.
"It's so thick, so long, and it's an iron sword. I'm afraid this sword can be broken easily!"
"A king's sword can be used for decoration. It would be a pity if the sword breaks during the test!" The craftsmen sighed, they have decided that iron swords are not as good as bronze swords.
"Bai Mu, don't hurt the prime minister!" Bai Zang warned.
"Don't worry, he can't hurt me!" Zhang Beichen pointed his sword at Bai Mu, Bai Mu held Zhan Tie in his hand with a determined look on his face!
He must prove the thousands of years of tradition of their swordsmiths!
"Ah!" Bai Mu clenched his sword. He gritted his teeth, veins popped out, and with all his strength, he was bound to cut off Zhang Beichen's long sword!
Zhang Beichen blocked it with his horizontal sword, and the blade collided with the sword body, causing sparks to fly and making a clanging sound.
"This iron sword has not been cut off?" Everyone looked at it in surprise. They thought that if the sword was struck, the iron sword would be broken!
"It's my turn!" Zhang Beichen's sword changed from defense to offense. Bai Mu blocked in a hurry. This time, he didn't hear any sound of the sword blades intersecting.
"Zhan Kong?" Bai Mu looked at the Zhan Tie in his hand in confusion.
However, in the next second, his expression changed from confusion to horror, and dense beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"This... this is impossible! This is Zantee! How could it be cut off with one sword!" He saw that the Zantee Sword in his hand had been chopped into two pieces!
The reason why he didn't feel it was because Zhang Beichen cut too fast, and the iron sword in his hand was very thin, so he didn't react when the sword was cut off, until the iron-cut part fell to the ground!
"Zhan Tie, cut off by the iron sword!" The craftsmen were stunned when they saw this scene!
"This is a sword forged by Master Bai Zang!"
"Even if it is the King's Sword, without using the power of national destiny and spiritual power, it is just an iron sword! How can an iron sword cut off a bronze sword?"
"What's going on?" The scene in front of them has subverted their cognition!
Bai Zang squatted down and picked up the broken half of Zantei, his hands trembling. This sword not only cut off his sword, but also cut off his arrogance!
"Is it true that a bronze sword is not as good as an iron sword?" He murmured to himself.
"Of course!" Zhang Beichen said not only to him, but also to all the craftsmen, "Everyone has seen it! The sword in my hand is longer, more flexible, and sharper than the bronze sword! Isn't it ordinary?
Forged from iron, but steel!”
"Steel?" Everyone was even more confused.
"Yes, steel!" Zhang Beichen said, "The iron you used to forge ironware can only be called pig iron. It has many impurities, but I use my forging skills to forge steel. It is stronger, the material is cheaper, and it can also be forged.
Bring out weapons!"
"As the saying goes, one inch long, one inch strong. When fighting against a bronze dagger, a long sword like this has almost an absolute advantage! The armor forged with it is also tougher! The farm tools forged with it are cheap and easy to use!"
