Is this a multicolored stone?" Li Xiaoman touched it and threw it aside.
"Yes. You also know that these stones contain some trace elements, and adding them will have unexpected results." Zhao Wuxi replied.
Li Xiaoman walked up to the big knife again. Although it had not yet taken shape, he could vaguely see several irregular colorful lines on the surface of the knife. They were distributed very regularly. If you don't look carefully, you really can't tell.
Touch it carefully with your fingers, and you will feel an oozing feeling on your fingertips.
It is recorded in the ore chapter of "The Sutra of Casting" that colorful stones contain five elements and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Weapons cast with it represent that they can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Forge masters like to use it to forge weapons.
Taking a look at the scrapped weapons in the corner, which were all made of multicolored stones, Li Xiaoman quickly understood what the problem Zhao Wuxi encountered was.
"Uncle Zhao, are the weapons you made very hard yet crisp?" Li Xiaoman smiled slightly.
Zhao Wuxi was overjoyed, but he still suppressed his surprise. This good-for-nothing young man had such great eyesight that he couldn't hide it. He replied: "Yes, weapons made of colorful stones can integrate the five elements. This is equivalent to the weapon absorbing
With the aura of heaven and earth, he has become spiritual, invincible, and can use multicolored stones to cast weapons with extreme accuracy, which shows that this caster's casting technology has reached the primary peak."
After a while, Zhao Wuxi asked: "Master Li, do you think you can still help Zhao?" There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
This kind of thing can only rely on the rich experience and casting skills of the foundry master. Only the experience accumulated over the years can know when to add multicolored stones when making weapons? How much to add? How to add them, etc.
Only those who have accumulated this kind of experience and have reached at least an intermediate level caster are eligible to receive the opportunity to teach through words and deeds. Otherwise, they will have to figure out their own way.
What's more, Li Xiaoman is not a warrior yet. It is impossible for anyone to teach him the secrets of casting in this area. What kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending to be here with a useless guy? If you were more humble, I might be more polite to you. That's okay.
This is the reason why Zhao Wuxi is somewhat unwelcome to Li Xiaoman.
What can you do to teach me a lesson?!
Grandma is a bear.
The "Casting Scripture" left by Li Xiaoman's mother actually had a detailed description of junior casters. As a test for junior casters, Li Xiaoman still clearly remembered the colorful stones. Li Xiaoman thought about it, and then calmly
He said quietly: "As for casting experience, I am indeed an inferior caster, but I know a way to add multicolored stones, which may be able to help Uncle Zhao."
"What method?" Zhao Wuxi quickly stepped forward and asked.
"There are many ways to add colorful stones, including dry addition, wet addition, simple addition, tedious addition... Anyway, there are many. Let me just talk about wet addition." Li Xiaoman deliberately made a mistake,
Say no more.
"Oh, Mr. Li, please speak quickly." Zhao Wuxi is really impatient.
"Don't worry, Uncle Zhao, wait for me to take a drink of water first." Li Xiaoman took a sip of water calmly, and then said, "Wet addition is different from other methods. Its principle is to use water vapor to mix the five colors.
The trace elements in the stone seep into the materials used to make weapons. The method is actually neither simple nor difficult. First, heat the colorful stone to a high temperature. This heat must be controlled. Otherwise, if the temperature is high, the five elements will
The elements will evaporate; if the temperature is too low, the five elements will be inactive and cannot be dissolved by water. Then quickly put the multicolored stones into a prepared basin of water. At this time, the high-temperature multicolored stones will emit a wave of energy when they are cold.
Water vapor, just place the material for forging weapons on top of the water vapor... If you are forging a large weapon, different forces will be exerted on the area of the material, from the handle to the tip from deep to shallow, from the blade to the back of the knife.
From thin to thick. Every time it is forged three times, it is dipped in the water vapor of the colorful stone, and then the temperature of the furnace fire is controlled..." Li Xiaoman said.
"So that's how it is? Why is it different from mine? Can it work?" Zhao Wuxi heard what Li Xiaoman said was completely different from the method he used to add colorful stones, but he was so clear that he couldn't help it for a while.
refute.
"You'll know after you try it." Li Xiaoman said with a smile on his face.
"Well done, I, Mr. Zhao, will see today whether Mr. Li is a real person. If it can really help Mr. Zhao break through to the peak of a junior forger, I, Mr. Zhao, will tell you if you have anything to do in the future.
A man must follow the work of a dog and a horse. "A teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime. The field of a caster is vast and boundless. Sometimes, a little casual guidance from others can benefit the caster a lot. It is true: listening to your words will lead to ten years of practice.
Years of experience. It is not an exaggeration for Zhao Wu to call Li Xiaoman his teacher.
Soon, Zhao Wuxi prepared a pool filled with clean water, began to forge the colorful stones and the broadsword in the furnace, and then picked up a hammer weighing a hundred kilograms and hammered the broadsword blank.
boom.
Then Li Xiaoman watched the degree of calcining of the colorful stones in the fire. As soon as he saw the heat, he hurriedly took out the tools and put them in the water. A strong steam rose into the sky and covered the big knife in Zhao Wuxi's hand.
. I saw:
Green smoke curls up from the blade's surface, and the colors change endlessly, making it dazzling.
"Put the big knife into the fire again quickly!" Li Xiaoman shouted loudly.
Zhao Wuxi quickly put the big knife into the fire.
"Okay, take it out for forging." Li Xiaoman directed.
I saw Zhao Wuxi swinging a sledgehammer. Bang.
The sparks flew up and scattered like stars.
The water flows and the clouds rise.
The crisp sound of forging metal is accompanied by the long sound of running water.
This process is repeated three times, and then the hammer is dipped into the pool.
After shining it several times, Zhao Wuxi's steely eyes gradually became more and more surprised. The broadsword slowly took shape under the hammer, but the fine lines of the fish scales on the knife did not break with the violent blows.
, but has the stretchability like gold.
When he saw that the situation was completely different from before, Zhao Wuxi was as excited as a little old man.
Li Xiaoman had to remind him to master his strength, which made our lady very embarrassed.
Seeing that what was said in "The Sutra of Casting" was correct, Li Xiaoman finally let go of his worries. He sat aside and watched the process of Zhao Wuxi casting the sword, recording every detail of his forging in his mind. Sometimes,
Careful observation is a valuable experience.
About a few hours later.
Sonorous, sonorous.
The smooth metal carnival finally came to an end.
Zhao Wuxi put the forged weapon into the pool water to cool down. The sword was already in shape and the blade was extremely sharp. The hair on the blade was blown and broken. After playing with it for a few times, the sword became spiritual and seemed to come to life.
In terms of the hardness and toughness of the blade, as well as the lightness, thickness, and smoothness of the blade, this knife has reached the fourth level of casting. Among the weapons cast by Zhao Wuxi's current caster level, it is the
The highest level.
Now, I have to tell readers about the level requirements of weapons.
The weapons in the world of cultivation, except for star generals, are all made by forgers, from the lowest level one to level nine. Each level depends on the forging materials to see whether it can be upgraded. In other words, a junior forger can make up to level four.
Weapons, if the intermediate forger can upgrade them with some materials that the junior forger cannot master, this situation is called "soul casting" in the terminology of the forger; it is also called "soul injection"; every 'soul casting'
';Once you succeed, the weapon level will be upgraded to one level, and all aspects of the weapon's performance will be improved to a new level.
After reaching the ninth level, the weapon reaches a bottleneck. If it goes up further, it can absorb the power of stars. At this time, a star will be added to the weapon, also called a "one star". Weapons that reach the "star" level can absorb the power of stars.
It is called the Star Weapon, and only Star Warriors can possess it.
The Sky Star Weapon then repeats from Level 1 to Level 9. At this time, it has no limit. The more stars a weapon has, the more powerful it is. In the world of cultivation, a Level 1 Sky Star Weapon can at least resist ten weapons.
A human star warrior armed with level nine weapons.
However, the casting of natural weapons is very difficult. Only every nine levels can be upgraded to a first-level star weapon. The higher the number of stars, the materials required must be extremely rare. The requirements for the caster are more demanding, and only the most advanced ones are required.
Only casters can do the job. This is why the Heavenly Star Warriors are invincible in the world of cultivation and are envied by everyone in the world, because the Heavenly Star Warriors themselves have weapons that belong to their star names.
Not only can they cast their own stars, but the upgrade process will not be as difficult as those of human star warriors. They use their own true energy to evolve and directly upgrade to a star every time they upgrade, which greatly reduces the tedious forging process.
It is impossible to compare with them. The human star warriors wanted to achieve the strength to compete with the heavenly star warriors in terms of force. There have been times in the history of the cultivation world, but only one has happened in hundreds of years.
Zhao Wuxi can forge weapons of at least level 4 for human star warriors. He has at least reached the pinnacle of junior forging masters, which is rare in the entire Tang Dynasty. You know, the forging masters of Yinggong Mansion are known as the strongest, but Liu
Because he has just crossed the threshold of an intermediate caster.
This peak threshold has stuck with Zhao Wuxi for more than ten years. He has spent countless years of youth and effort, but now he has finally made a breakthrough. He really has reasons to be happy.
And all this is just a slight nudge.
It seemed like just a casual pointer, but it was like opening a door, and the future suddenly became brighter and enlightened.
"I, Mr. Zhao, keep my word. I will do my best to serve Mr. Li from now on." Zhao Wuxi held his fists in his hands and looked solemn and respectful. How could he have the contempt just now?
Outside Moxie Hall, Li Xiaoman didn't come out for a long time, which made the first guard Wang Wu very worried. The boy's cynicism came: "My master's Moxie Hall is not something that everyone can enter casually. Most people go there."
That's asking for death. If you don't go and take care of your good-for-nothing young master, he might have fainted and died in there."
This guy is not afraid of Li Xiaoman's prominent family background because he is Zhao Wuxi's apprentice. Besides, this is Qingcheng Town, and the Li family's prestige is great, but it is difficult to get here all at once. (To be continued)
