Lin Feng, of course, also felt everyone’s gaze, but he didn’t care about such things. He casually picked up several pieces of Red Gold Profound Iron and threw them into the Heaven Furnace, followed by small chunks of five different materials. After that, he closed his eyes and sensed the situation inside the furnace, his body bursting with fiery red Gang Qi, which seed to co to life, entering the Heaven Furnace through the holes on top.
"This... how is this possible!"
Others may not understand Artifact Refining, but Fang Gu did. It was normal for Lin Feng to throw in Red Gold Profound Iron because that was the main body of the weapon. However, the other five materials were different—their properties were distinct, and normally they couldn’t be used together as they would clash, and if not careful, an explosion could occur. How could his junior brother do this?
For a mont, he was absolutely dumbfounded. Such a thod was unheard of. Any Artifact Refiner would know you couldn’t carelessly use materials with different properties, as that would ruin all of them. But his junior brother did just that. What was going on?
Seeing how unbothered Lin Feng appeared on the surface, Fang Gu felt that his junior brother must be doing this intentionally rather than mistaking the materials. Thinking this, Fang Gu also closed his eyes and extended his Divine Sense into the furnace, trying to see what exactly his junior brother was planning to do.
The Heaven Furnace was truly extraordinary. Under normal circumstances, Red Gold Profound Iron would take two hours to slt, but inside the Heaven Furnace, it was done in just a little while, as were the other five materials!
However, there was a difference. These materials hadn’t fused together; instead, under the control of Lin Feng’s Gang Qi, they suspended inside the Heaven Furnace, similar to a large sphere with five small spheres the size of fingertips surrounding it.
The slting process was complete, and it was ti to move on to the next step...
Now is the mont!
Seeing that the slting was complete, Lin Feng’s expression turned serious. It was a critical ti, and Lin Feng too beca focused. He carefully operated his Gang Qi through Divine Sense to shape the Red Gold Profound Iron into a short sword, and under his deliberate design, the short sword had a unique shape: one side with a sharp blade and the other with a serrated edge.
As soon as he saw that the Red Gold Profound Iron had taken on the shape of a short sword, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. This was only the first step, and it had gone smoothly. What ca next was even more crucial.
Maintaining a careful and cautious attitude, Lin Feng once again stimulated his Gang Qi, hovering the molten liquids of the five materials above the sword embryo made from Red Gold Profound Iron. Suddenly, with a surge of intention, he increased the control of the Gang Qi. In a flash under its control, the five molten materials converged on the sword embryo.
With simultaneous control over the five materials, their molten liquids rged with the sword embryo in an instant, and a Five Elents Formation ford atop it, though it remained inactive.
Seeing that this step was also successful, Lin Feng took another sigh of relief. This was a delicate task. The five materials counteracted each other. If he had tried to apply them one by one, the process would surely have failed. The only option was to embed them in the sword embryo at the sa ti to achieve a balanced state, avoiding damage to the embryo and enhancing its strength, thus strengthening the sword itself.
"This... how is this possible?"
At this mont, Fang Gu’s eyes nearly popped out. He could never have dreamt that his junior brother would be so monstrous to actually integrate a Five Elents Array into a sword. He would have never believed it if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes!
He just couldn’t understand it. How was his junior brother, so young, so formidable? With flawless control over the key aspects of Artifact Refining, even if he were to try to replicate his junior brother’s steps having seen them, his success rate wouldn’t exceed forty percent. His junior brother was simply too monstrous, making him, as the senior brother, feel completely dwarfed...
At this ti, Lin Feng made his move again. With a wave of his hand, fiery red Gang Qi instantly ford a large Qi-crafted hand that took the processed sword embryo out of the Heaven Furnace and placed it upon the anvil.
In an instant, the surface of the Red Gold Profound Iron glead with a bright red hue, filled with high temperatures as if it could lt all in its path. At that mont, with a thought, the fiery red Qi-crafted hand grabbed a Profound Ink Stone and crushed it in an instant, turning it into a cloud of dust. Under Lin Feng’s control, the hand evenly sprinkled the Profound Ink Stone dust onto the sword embryo.
After completing this step, Lin Feng controlled the Qi-crafted hand once more, picked up another material, and crushed it likewise, dispersing its dust onto the sword embryo. In a blink, Lin Feng applied several materials in this way, sprinkling them upon the blade.
Lin Feng had his reasons for doing so. Although the Five Elents Formation was powerful, triggering it was not so simple. These materials were neutral and could bridge the Array’s activation, whereas other materials were clearly unsuitable for use here.
Having sprinkled various materials’ powder onto the sword embryo, Lin Feng’s fiery red Gang Qi transford yet again. The Qi-crafted hand dissipated, and in its place, fiery red Gang Qi enveloped the sword embryo, making it seem like a burning sword from afar. Then with a wave of his hand, a forging hamr from not too far away flew into Lin Feng’s grasp, and now it was ti to truly activate the Five Elents Formation. As long as the formation was activated, this weapon was as good as successfully forged.
"Smack..."
Lin Feng cleared his mind of distractions, focusing all his attention on the sword body. Activating the Five Elents Formation on the sword body was no small feat; despite having the assisting materials at hand, there was absolutely no room for carelessness in truly activating the Five Elents Formation!
A hamr blow struck down and a burst of red light suddenly appeared on the entire sword body, even a strong wind blew around. However, the powder on the surface of the sword body didn’t move at all. Only where the hamr had struck did the powder disappear, as if it had fused with the sword body.
"Clank..."
"Clank..."
...
Lin Feng’s hands continued non-stop, striking the sword embryo at a lightning-fast pace. In the blink of an eye, he had hamred all the powder into the sword body, which had now taken on a different color, resembling pitch-black ink. The scorching light that had been there before vanished without a trace!
This... this technique!
Witnessing this scene, Fang Gu was completely astounded beside him. He could see that, through his junior brother’s handling, the sword had been essentially forged successfully, and he truly admired his junior brother’s forging skills to the point of complete awe.
The Five Elents Formation hadn’t been activated yet, and it was already at this stage. If the Five Elents Formation could truly be activated, Fang Gu couldn’t even predict how formidable the sword would beco. Thinking this, his eyes grew even wider. He fixed his gaze on Lin Feng forging the sword embryo, unwilling to miss any detail, truly wishing to learn everything...
Artifact... Artifact refining!
Xia Lalan was now rendered speechless, Lin Feng’s refining technique was incredibly skilled - he seed like a Refining Master in action. Even Fang Gu was enraptured, and though she didn’t understand artifact refining, she realized that Lin Feng’s skill in artifact refining was unimaginably high.
She was now completely lost for words, looking at Lin Feng; she couldn’t describe the shock she felt inside. Not only was he a supre expert, but he was also a freak of nature, excelling in both alchemy and artifact refining. She couldn’t comprehend how soone like Lin Feng could exist in this world!
Xia Lalan was stunned, but the children were not. They watched Lin Feng hamr the sword, excitent shining in their eyes. They forgot everything else, just staring intensely at the uniquely shaped sword, their hearts filled with joy. They thought Teacher Lin was incredibly powerful for being able to forge such a sword; they all wanted to see how the sword would turn out...
The Old Monster and his two friends were not overly surprised, but they were unexpectedly impressed. This was also their first ti seeing Lin Feng refine weapons, and their eyes shone as they looked at the weapon Lin Feng was crafting. They recognized how good the weapon Lin Feng had crafted was. Although it wasn’t at the level of an ancient weapon, it was strong enough to withstand their power! They also looked on with eager anticipation, wanting to know what kind of weapons Lin Feng would forge for them...
Right at that mont, Lin Feng suddenly took out a Demon Core and threw it into the center of the Five Elents Formation, then hamred down on it!
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a loud explosion, the Demon Core shattered, unleashing its energy in a burst that enveloped the sword embryo. A powerful surge of energy ford instantly, blasting out like a hurricane in all directions. Fang Gu was taken aback, quickly circulating his Gang Qi to resist and using it to channel the energy flow away, preventing any damage to the surroundings.
He was just about to ask Lin Feng why he did that, but before he could speak, he beca speechless...
In an instant, he saw the sword that Lin Feng was forging; the inky color on the sword body suddenly vanished, replaced by the natural hue of Red Gold Profound Iron, exuding a chilling aura. Even more astonishing, there were streams of five-colored light ceaselessly flickering on it, making it look like a kaleidoscopic sword! Although it lacked dense cloud patterns, anyone could see that the weapon was extraordinary by rely placing it there.
At that ti, Lin Feng removed the fiery red Gang Qi and reached for the Crystal Milk, sprinkling it onto the sword body. Instantly, a stream of light shone on the sword body, with pale white smoke swirling continuously around it, looking exceedingly eerie. Then Lin Feng’s body burst forth with blue Gang Qi, enveloping the newly forged sword. The sword body was too hot; of course, it needed to be cooled down first while also increasing the sword’s hardness.
"Not bad."
After a while, Lin Feng dispelled the blue Gang Qi and reached out to catch the sword that flew into his hand. He examined it closely; indeed, it was not bad. With the Five Elents Formation activated, the quality of the sword had been greatly enhanced. From any angle, it t his expectations. It was indeed not bad.
Having inspected it, he waved his hand and tossed the sword to his senior brother. Since this was only the first sword and there were many children to consider, he didn’t want to waste too much ti. He had been careful with the first sword, but with the success of that experience, the subsequent refining process should be easier.
Thinking this, he imdiately threw a chunk of Red Gold Profound Iron and five of the previous materials into the Heaven Furnace and began refining the next sword...
