Metal Attribute Forged
"Xiao Yi Xian, what is he doing?"
This was the first time Zi Yan had seen Qin Yu like this, so she went up to Xiao Yi Xian and asked.
Isn't it obvious?
Zi Yan stared wide-eyed, eagerly awaiting Xiao Yi Xian's answer.
He's thinking about something.
"..."
I appreciate your nonsense.
Time passed slowly, and Qin Yu's brows furrowed and relaxed at times.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in his dark pupils.
Metal is associated with change.
Cong means obedience; revolution means change.
Besides being powerful and sharp, another major characteristic of Metal Attribute forces is their extremely strong adaptability to change.
Since that's the case...
Qin Yu's thoughts gradually became clear.
First, use your own transformed Metal-Attribute Battle Qi to come into contact with the Metal Attribute power within the Gengsha Dark Iron. Once both powers have adapted to each other's presence, then absorb the latter, wouldn't that solve the problem?
Simply put, it involves first "injecting" a portion of one's own power into the Gengsha Dark Iron, creating a connection between the two, and gradually merging them together.
Then, the entire piece of "fused" Gengsha Dark Iron is absorbed.
To give another example...
It's like adding an extra piece of material into an already formed blank when forging a weapon.
The two materials fused together under high temperature and hammering, becoming one with each other, ultimately forming a more powerful weapon.
"There seems to be a chance... Holy crap! You two are trying to scare us to death!"
Qin Yu's lips curled up slightly. When he looked up, he found Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan standing in front of him, looking at him as if he were some rare and precious object.
What were you doing just now?
Zi Yan narrowed her eyes, feeling as if she had discovered something important.
This guy...
Were you just thinking about how to skimp on your pills?
That's absolutely outrageous!
I'll explain later, for now, stay away.
Xiao Yi Xian stepped forward and pulled away Zi Yan, who was standing still and refusing to move.
"Hey! My little pills! You haven't given me my pills for today! Hey!!!"
As Zi Yan's voice faded into the distance, Qin Yu calmed down and prepared to begin his attempt.
He first mobilized the Earth-Attribute Battle Qi within his body, transforming it into the Metal Attribute, and then slowly released it outwards, cutting into the Gengsha Dark Iron.
Qin Yu could sense that the energy inside the Gengsha Dark Iron was reacting to contact with the outside world.
Two unfamiliar energies are cautiously sizing each other up.
Qin Yu did not rush forward, but maintained a stable output of Metal-Attribute Battle Qi, allowing the Gengsha Dark Iron to gradually adapt to his power.
This process cannot be rushed.
By the next morning, Qin Yu's Dou Qi had been greatly depleted, but he could clearly feel that the energy in the Gengsha Dark Iron was fusing with his own Metal-Attribute Battle Qi.
Qin Yu continued to maintain a steady output, allowing the fusion of the two forces to deepen.
As time went by, the luster on the surface of the Gengsha Dark Iron became much richer, and the internal energy and Qin Yu's own power almost fused together.
Qin Yu knew the time had come.
He took a deep breath, adjusted the output of his Metal-Attribute Battle Qi to the maximum, and then suddenly drew it out.
The Metal Attribute energy within the Gengsha Dark Iron instantly surged into his body.
It's here!
Qin Yu gritted his teeth, enduring the impact of this force.
The moment the Metal Attribute energy entered his body, it felt like countless steel needles were piercing through his meridians.
A sharp, stinging sensation spread from my palm to my arm, and then from my arm to my whole body.
Qin Yu remained expressionless, fully utilizing his cultivation technique to suppress the power and guiding it into his own Dou Qi.
The "foundation" previously laid using the Crimson-Refined Golden Spring came into play at this moment.
When the power of the Gengsha Dark Iron encountered the Metal Attribute rooted in his body, it seemed to have found a home and began to become docile.
Another sunset.
Within Qin Yu's body, the Metal Attribute power is increasing at a visible rate.
The Metal-Attribute Battle Qi that originally required conversion to unleash is now gradually becoming a part of him.
Finally, the last trace of Metal Attribute power merged into his Dou Qi.
Qin Yu opened his eyes. The piece of Gengsha Dark Iron in his palm had turned into a pile of gray powder, which scattered with a gentle breath.
Within his body, a different type of power had truly emerged.
He tried to activate it, and a sharp aura instantly emanated from his body, as if he had transformed into a drawn sword.
Qin Yu stood up and stretched.
Earth Generates Metal, Metal Generates Water, Water Generates Wood, Wood Generates Fire, and Fire Generates Earth.
If we don't look into it closely, the only thing Qin Yu currently lacks is the power of Water Attribute.
The Metal Attribute power has been officially forged. Just a few days ago, he acquired a Metal Attribute cultivation technique, which he can study.
However, this Metal Attribute cultivation technique is only at the Mystic Tier High-Rank, which is somewhat inferior to the improved version of the <Eight Desolations Return-to-Origin Art> that Qin Yu is currently cultivating, but it should still be possible to integrate them.
Hmm, it's been a long time since we had a brain-training session.
Qin Yu stretched his neck, walked to the edge of the Stone Tower, and looked down at the Peace Town below.
The sky had darkened, and the town's lights twinkled, creating a peaceful scene.
About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, footsteps were heard downstairs.
"Qin Yu! We're back!"
Zi Yan's voice came from downstairs, strong and clear, indicating she was in a good mood.
Qin Yu went downstairs and saw Zi Yan carrying a lot of things, with Xiao Yi Xian following behind her, also carrying quite a lot.
"You guys... you've emptied out Peace Town?"
"No! I just bought some food!"
Zi Yan placed the things in her hands on the table and opened an oil paper package as if presenting a treasure.
"Look, I brought you this roasted meat especially! It's delicious!"
Qin Yu glanced at the glistening roasted meat, then at Zi Yan's smug little face, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Okay, I'll give you an extra bottle of pills tomorrow."
"Real?!"
Zi Yan's eyes lit up instantly, and she almost took off on the spot.
"I keep my word."
"Qin Yu! I declare that we're the best of friends in the world!"
Qin Yu glanced at her sideways, his eyes filled with distrust.
I've been busy refining the Crimson-Refined Golden Spring and the Gengsha Dark Iron these past few days, and I haven't given this girl any of the little pills yet. Who knows how she's complaining about me now.
Now that we have the little pills, let's start talking about how we're the best in the world again.
Oh well, that's all Zi Yan is aiming for these days anyway.
Qin Yu glanced at Xiao Yi Xian, who was leaning against the door frame with a smile on her lips, watching him and Zi Yan fooling around.
"Is nothing happening in town today?"
"No, things have been quite peaceful these past few days."
Xiao Yi Xian shook her head and sat down next to him.
"And you? How's your research on those two things going?"
"Nailed it."
"That's fine."
Xiao Yi Xian leaned on his shoulder and yawned.
Tonight, you're mine.
