Chapter 5 - Forging the Sword
According to the words of his previous life, the True Fire was a type of energy that was in the shape of a flame.
To become a Weapon Refiner, one had to integrate the True Fire into the Dantian.
That was the place where the nine Spiritual Meridian met.
The difficulty of fusing with the True Fire was extremely high, there were countless cultivators in the Glory Continent, but even among a thousand people, there was a high chance that they would be able to successfully fuse with the True Fire and become a Weapon Refiner.
From ancient times until now, there had been countless examples of people trying to fuse with the True Fire, only to end up suffering the backlash from it in the end.
”The question now is, how do I get my hands on the True Fire?”
had a headache, True Fire s were quite common in the Glory Continent, they were sold in the biggest weapon shop in the southern region of the Furious Waves City, for one True Fire was around 500 gold coins.
This price was not considered expensive.
However, to the current Tang Huan, this was an astronomical figure. Even if he sold all the normal weapons in the shop, he would still not be able to gather a thousand gold coins. Unfortunately, before the old blacksmith left, he displayed a talent that was too mediocre. Otherwise, the old blacksmith would have definitely prepared a True Fire for him.
This time, the old blacksmith didn't know when he would return, so he still had to rely on himself.
Tang Huan thought about it, and in the end, still thought about what he had done in the past.
Although the treasured sword that he forged in his previous life could not be compared with the famous swords such as the Ancient Fish Intestine and Great Ravine, it was still an extremely rare weapon in this world. Otherwise, it would not have been able to sell at such a high price.
There was a reason behind the fact that they could only sell farm tools, and that was because their quality was about the same as this world's farm tools. Even if they were strong, it was still very limited, and could not be compared with the sharp tools Tang Huan had forged in his previous life. If he were to choose any one of the works from his previous life, he would be able to cut them all in half.
Of course, all the weapons in the store were actually the ”masterpieces” of Tang Huan, the teenager.
Even though this shop was opened by the old blacksmith, he rarely forged weapons, especially in recent years. This made the business of the blacksmith shop extremely depressed.
”Although I am currently unable to forge a low-grade weapon, but with my skills, the sword I forge is definitely incomparably sharp. I presume the price should not be too low.”
Tang Huan thought, and quickly made his decision.
After casually making some food to fill his stomach, Tang Huan headed towards the shop in front.
Although the young Tang Huan was not good at forging weapons, he had a strong body, had some strength, and was very patient. There were many sword billets s that he had forged in the shop.
This way, Tang Huan could save quite a bit of effort.
After familiarizing himself with the locations of the various tools, Tang Huan started to get busy. Not long later, tinkling sounds came from the shop.
Tang Huan's upper body was naked, the hammer in his hand struck the red sword billets on Dun Zi's Dun one by one, and he quickly sweated profusely.
As soon as he made his move, he noticed that it was much easier for him to forge a weapon than it was in his previous life.
In his mind, the ”Nine Yang Divine Furnace” had already started to turn, continuously pulling the Genuine Qi towards Tang Huan's right hand. If Tang Huan was on the Earth of his previous life, he would definitely not be able to handle this hammer that weighed twenty to thirty kilograms. But right now, he felt as if lifting it was as easy as lifting it.
The heavy hammer was like a light branch that could be swung around by him.
With the Genuine Qi, the speed at which weapons were forged would definitely be greatly increased.
In addition, after personally forging the sword billets, he discovered that the most common weapon in the Glory Continent was the ”black profound iron”. In terms of quality, there were a lot more iron ore than Earth. If it was forged well, even if it was not of the superior grade, it would at least be able to cut one's hair and slice through iron like mud.
This discovery made Tang Huan extremely excited.
Following that, Tang Huan became even more focused, and completely forgot about the time. By the time he woke up from his hunger, the sky had already darkened, and it was already late at night.
Tang Huan heaved a sigh of relief, and looked towards the wooden platform. Over there, three swords were placed side by side.
The first sword was a heavy sword. The sword was more than a meter long, and the blade was as thick as an adult's palm. This was the first time he had forged such a heavy sword. In his previous life on Earth, the heaviest treasure sword that he had ever forged was only eight kilograms. This was the first time that he had ever forged such a heavy sword, and it was also the first time that he had ever forged such a heavy sword.
The second sword was about two fingers wide and seventy centimeters long. The third sword was a short sword that was also two fingers wide. It was only twenty centimeters long and had two grooves on both sides of the blade.
The three swords lay there silently, their shiny black bodies seeming to be slowly flowing with a layer of ghostly light.
Tang Huan picked up the long sword in the middle, quickly drawing a few sword flowers, which was extremely cold. After a while, the Genuine Qi entered the sword blade and slashed onto the iron ingots on the stage.
”Ding!”
After a series of clanging sounds, the iron ingot was split into two, and its cross section was very smooth.
Following that, Tang Huan put down the long sword, and picked up the heavy sword and the short sword one by one. Just like how it was before long, the table was split into two halves.
”Alright!”
Tang Huan's face revealed a satisfied smile.
In terms of delicacy and beauty, these three swords were far inferior to any of the treasured swords he had forged in his previous life. However, in terms of quality and sharpness, they far surpassed any of his previous works. The reason for this was, firstly, that the quality of the black profound iron's ore was even better, and secondly, that Tang Huan had the Genuine Qi.
The use of the Genuine Qi allowed Tang Huan to display his own skills even more well. Compared to these three swords, the weapons that young Tang Huan had forged in the past were simply trash.
