Forging the Qi Gathering Tokens and Heaven-Veiling Plates (II)
Jiang Liu put away all the Celestial Frost Branch he had already crafted. He planned to let them recover and see if he could continue refining the Thousand-Year Cold Iron later.
As for intercepting vital energy and Divine Sense into the Celestial Frost Branch, that can only be done after one's own vital energy and spiritual power have fully recovered.
When Gongsun Haoyue and Flowing Cloud Matriarch entered the forging room, they saw Jiang Liu still sitting cross-legged, recovering.
The two did not make a sound to disturb Jiang Liu, but waited quietly to the side.
At this moment, the plaza outside was already filled with Grandmaster and Elders.
After all, the aura emanating from this place was enough to make even their sect leader's heart tremble; the shock it caused them was unimaginable.
Gong Mo and Tian Ling have also returned to Forging Peak.
They were eager to see if Jiang Liu had successfully engraved and forged the Celestial Frost Branch.
When Jiang Liu felt he had recovered enough, he slowly opened his eyes.
He sensed that a large crowd had gathered outside, and knew they were all concerned about his achievements.
Immediately, Jiang Liu took out five engraved Celestial Frost Branch from his pocket, handed them to Gongsun Haoyue, and said, "These are the ones I've finished making. Take them and show them to everyone!"
In fact, Jiang Liu did this to let these Grandmaster and elders know that he has the ability to forge sacred artifacts.
However, his success rate is not 100%.
Gongsun Haoyue took the Celestial Frost Branch handed to her by Jiang Liu. Upon touching it, she felt only a warm sensation, without a trace of coldness.
It seems that Jiang Liu has completely engraved the Entrapment Formation on the Celestial Frost Branch.
It completely trapped the chill of the Celestial Frost Branch, which can be said to be quite successful in its engraving.
Flowing Cloud Matriarch took a Celestial Frost Branch from Gongsun Haoyue's hand and carefully sensed it.
She couldn't sense anything from it at all, because it looked like a token made from an ordinary tree branch.
It's just that this token has a rather peculiar shape.
Then, she tried to extend her own vital energy into it to investigate.
However, when her vital energy reached the token, it seemed to have no effect, as if it had sunk into the sea.
This startled Flowing Cloud Matriarch. What was going on?
What secret is hidden in this token?
At this moment, Flowing Cloud Matriarch began to examine the token in his hand carefully.
It turns out that the surface is covered with textures of varying sizes, and these textures were engraved on.
Suddenly, Flowing Cloud Matriarch had a flash of inspiration and thought, "Could all of these be formations?"
She remembered that Jiang Liu had asked her about the formation before.
Could it be that Jiang Liu inherited the formation technique?
If that's the case, then we really need to have a good talk with him.
Gongsun Haoyue had already taken the Celestial Frost Branch that Jiang Liu had engraved outside and showed it to all the Grandmaster and Elders before returning to the forging room.
Seeing that nothing was amiss, the Grandmaster and elders who had been surrounding the forging workshop dispersed in twos and threes.
However, their hearts were not at peace, judging from the fluctuations in their aura just now and the items that Jiang Liu had created.
All of this proves that Jiang Liu has advanced to the Saint Realm and can even forge Saint Grade weapons.
Gong Mo and Tian Ling went back into the forging room, their eyes shining as they looked at Jiang Liu.
Because they had already seen the presence of the array on the inscribed Celestial Frost Branch.
As soon as the two entered the forging room, they anxiously prepared to question Jiang Liu.
However, before they could even ask any questions, Jiang Liu had already picked up a piece of millennium-old cold iron and thrown it into the furnace to heat it up.
It seems he plans to refine these iron plates first.
Seeing Gong Mo and Tian Ling's expressions, Flowing Cloud Matriarch knew what they were thinking and said, "You two help first! We can talk about the rest later."
Gong Mo and Tian Ling quickly stepped forward to help Jiang Liu heat up the furnace.
Soon, Jiang Liu pulled out the red-hot iron plate.
Jiang Liu directly held the huge Yuan Qi Hammer, placed the Cold Iron Token on the Yuan Qi Stake, and began to strike it hard.
This thousand-year-old cold iron contains few impurities, which is why it is even more difficult to refine.
If weapons are forged from this millennia-old cold iron, they do not need to be refined to be extremely pure before they can be used.
However, since these millennium-old cold iron tokens are intended for personal use, they must be refined to their purest form before the array can be inscribed upon them.
Jiang Liu plans to inscribe the Gathering Qi Formation on these thousand-year-old cold iron tokens.
It can be given to his several women for their daily cultivation.
To maximize the effect of the Gathering Qi Formation, it is best to refine the materials used to inscribe the array to their purest form.
The principle of the Gathering Source Array is actually not much different from that of the Entrapment Formation, but there are always many subtle differences.
Jiang Liu is not familiar with inscribing the Gathering Qi Formation yet, so he needs to wait until he becomes proficient before he can inscribe these four cold iron tokens.
However, once all four cold iron tokens have been refined, Jiang Liu will probably no longer have the energy to continue inscribing formations.
As the sun set, Jiang Liu, after a period of intense work, finally completed the refining of all four cold iron tokens.
Looking at the four cold iron tokens placed together, emitting a faint white aura.
Gongsun Haoyue, Flowing Cloud Matriarch, Gong Mo, Tian Ling were all marveling at what they saw.
Because they had never seen anyone refine cold iron to such a degree.
Just by leaving it there, the temperature there has dropped significantly.
This shows that Jiang Liu's refining process fully brought out the characteristics of the millennium-old cold iron.
No one in the world today can do this kind of thing.
Although they had already been able to imagine this refining method before.
However, Jiang Liu still managed to extract all four cold iron tokens as always.
The psychological impact on them was also considerable.
However, Gong Mo and Tian Ling are clearly more concerned about something else now.
Suppressing her excitement, Tian Ling asked Jiang Liu, "Holy Lord, have you mastered a kind of formation?"
Jiang Liu nodded and said, "Elder Tian Ling, I actually wanted to tell you this before, but this matter is too important, so I haven't brought it up yet."
Tian Ling's eyes lit up, and just as she was about to ask again, Gong Mo couldn't help but ask, "Holy Lord, can you teach us the formation?"
"It is possible, but this is not a convenient place. You will need to come to Silent Valley to find me tomorrow."
"Silent Valley? Is it the valley north of the imperial city?" Tian Ling frowned and asked.
"Yes," Jiang Liu nodded and said.
Then, Jiang Liu turned to Flowing Cloud Matriarch and said, "Sect Master, please come along tomorrow too!"
Looking at Jiang Liu's serious expression, Flowing Cloud Matriarch knew that he must have something important to tell him.
Moreover, it can only be said inside the Heaven-Veiling Grand Formation.
He immediately nodded in agreement.
After seeing that Flowing Cloud Matriarch had agreed, Jiang Liu nodded.
Then, after collecting the four cold iron tokens, he took Gongsun Haoyue and flew out of the Forging Peak, heading towards the imperial city.
Gong Mo and Tian Ling were overjoyed and became excited.
After all, Jiang Liu will teach them the formation tomorrow, which will further enhance their forging skills.
The Flowing Cloud Matriarch, standing to the side, frowned. She always felt that what Jiang Liu was saying was definitely not as calm as he appeared.
