Qin Tiexin stood up and moved his wrists and fingers, his joints crackling.
He watched Qin Tiexin put down the hammer and put Edgeless back to heat. Luo Ling's attention began to be highly concentrated - this meant that Qin Tiexin was about to use his palm to forge the weapon, which was the most dangerous and critical step in the entire recasting process.
Qin Tiexin Close your eyes and think back.
"Diamond Hammer Fist" was a martial art specially selected for him by Luo Ling, which was used for forging weapons with his bare hands. He spent a day practicing only the first two moves. The martial arts itself was not difficult, but it required extremely high control of power, and the force of each punch had to be accurate to the pound.
The fire is dimly blue, and the knife embryo is slowly burned in the furnace until it softens.
Qin Tiexin stretched out his right hand and took a deep breath.
A thin, almost transparent layer of Spiritual Qi seeped out from the palm and quickly covered the entire palm, forming a dense protective layer. This is the basic application of the first "Metal Gold Hand" in "Diamond Hammer Fist" - using Spiritual Qi for heat insulation, you can touch high-temperature metal with your bare hands without getting burned.
He put his right hand into the furnace.
A heat wave hit his face, and the hot breath was blocked by the Spiritual Qi layer, but some of the heat wave still penetrated into the skin through the protection. It was like putting his hand into hot sand, stinging, burning, and the blood under the skin seemed to be boiling. Qin Tiexin could still bear this temperature. He gritted his teeth, spread his fingers, and held the handle of the knife firmly.
Use force, lift.
A weight of 6,300 kilograms was pressed on his right arm, and the muscles were instantly tense to the limit, and the veins popped out. His arm was shaking slightly, but he was steady, and he took the knife embryo out of the furnace and laid it horizontally in front of him.
The left hand forms a fist, and a layer of khaki Spiritual Qi seeps out from the surface of the fist - earthy Spiritual Qi, thick and steady. This is the starting position of the second style of "Vajra Hammer Fist", "Zhenyue Hammer", which is specially used for forging with bare hands. The force can penetrate into the metal through the surface without damaging the appearance.
Qin Tiexin Close your eyes.
Divine Sense seeped into the inside of the blade like a thread, "seeing" every structure of the blade through the surface, and felt the precise position of the center of gravity. He used his right arm and Divine Sense to feel the weight and center of gravity distribution of Edgeless at the same time, and compared it with his own imagination.
Off the mark.
The center of gravity is two feet and three inches away from the handle of the knife, which is four points farther than the expected two feet and eight inches and seven points.
Four points is a very small deviation. For ordinary weapons, this deviation is almost negligible. But for the 6,300-pound Edgeless, a four-point deviation means that there will be a subtle sluggish feeling when swinging, the force transmission will be lost a little, and the feel will be much worse.
Qin Tiexin wants perfection.
He opened his eyes, raised his left fist, with an earthy aura, and struck the area that needed adjustment with one punch.
"Boom--!"
It was not the crisp sound of metal hitting, but a dull sound, like a heavy object hitting the soil. The fist hit the blade behind the center of gravity, and the force penetrated precisely into the metal through the Spiritual Qi layer, pushing the internal crystal lattice to fine-tune.
The blade of the sword trembled and buzzed.
Qin Tiexin held the knife steadily with his right hand, Divine Sense locked the center of gravity, and felt again. It was off, but it was not completely corrected. The deviation was reduced to three points, but it moved sideways by one point.
The second punch.
"Boom!"
The third punch.
The deviation is two points.
Each punch is extremely precise, and the force is controlled within the right range - it is necessary to move the internal metal to fine-tune the center of gravity without damaging the overall structure, nor leaving hammer marks on the surface of the blade. This is a delicate job, and it is more difficult than all the previous forgings combined.
This action extremely consumes Spiritual Qi, Qin Tiexin Dantian. The spiritual energy in Spiritual Qi is consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye. And it cannot be stopped - once it stops and recovers, as the blade slowly cools down, the center of gravity will change again, and it needs to be felt and adjusted again, so it can only be done in one go, without any pause in the middle.
Qin Tiexin There is sweat on the forehead.
It's not that it's hot, it's that it's tiring. The right hand is holding a heavy object of 6,300 kilograms, which is already strenuous to the limit. The left hand has to continue to output Spiritual Qi, using the subtle control of the "Yue Zhen Hammer", each punch must be accurate to within a millimeter. The spiritual power is being consumed rapidly, and the replenishment speed of the Qi Restoration Pill can no longer keep up with the consumption speed.
His breathing began to quicken and his chest heaved violently.
However, since he has not yet entered the seventh-level blood refining realm of body quenching, Qin Tiexin's physical endurance has not been substantially improved. He can only grit his teeth and persevere by relying on his natural divine power and obsession with perfection.
But his hands didn't shake and his eyes didn't wander.
Wu Zhen stood aside, frowning. His Divine Sense could clearly "see" that the deviation of the center of gravity of the blade had been reduced to less than two minutes - this level, according to the rules of the weapon refining industry, was not enough for such a huge For Edgeless, it was completely qualified. Even if he stopped now, he couldn't find any faults. He looked at Qin Tiexin's right palm that was already red, and wanted to ask Qin Tiexin to stop. He looked up at Luo Ling.
Luo Ling sat with an expressionless face, but her right hand had been raised to her waist, with tiny runes flowing on her fingertips. Method Formula was pinching it secretly - she was ready to take action at any time to save the situation. She shook her head slightly at Wu Zhen and signaled him to be silent. Instead, she carefully observed Qin Tiexin's condition and was ready to take action at any time.
Qin Tiexin doesn't know this.
There was only the knife in his eyes, and only the last glimmer of deviation.
Just a little bit closer, just a little bit closer!
There is still a little problem with his strength control - high strength is very accurate, and the deviation can be reduced by a large amount with one punch, but fine-tuning with small strength is not so accurate. Each adjustment will be slightly over or just a little bit off, and you can only consume Spiritual Qi over and over again for repeated fine-tuning.
However, the thin layer of Spiritual Qi on his right palm could no longer support the heat insulation. The high temperature continued to penetrate, and the protective layer became thinner and thinner. Qin Tiexin's palm had begun to turn red, and there was a burning pain under his skin. He could clearly feel that Edgeless's scorching temperature was penetrating the final protection.
If your palm comes into direct contact with the blade body, it will definitely be burned directly, and then the forging will basically fail.
Soon, soon!
Wu Zhen looked worried and wanted to speak several times, but he held back and just clenched his fists tightly. Luo Ling still sat firmly, but tightened her fingers on Method Formula slightly.
Finally.
Qin Tiexin gritted his teeth and raised his left fist again, mobilizing the last bit of spiritual power in Dantian and pouring it all into the fist. The earthy yellow Spiritual Qi was as solid as substance, and even fine lines like rocks appeared on the surface of the fist.
fall.
"Boom--!"
This punch was heavier than any previous punch. The blade trembled violently, a circle of almost invisible ripples appeared on the dark black surface, and a buzzing sound echoed in the Zhuxin Hall.
Center of gravity, return to position.
Not bad at all.
Qin Tiexin felt relieved, and then felt a sharp pain coming from his right hand - Spiritual Qi The layer was so thin that it almost disappeared, and the high temperature completely penetrated. Blisters instantly appeared on the skin of the palm, and the burning pain spread from the fingertips to the palm.
The moment his palm was about to touch the blade directly--
Luo Ling raised his hand.
The entire knife flew up from Qin Tiexin's hand, was caught in the air by invisible force, drew an arc, and was accurately thrown into the completely cooled spiritual spring quenching tank next to it.
"Tsk--!"
White mist rose into the sky and instantly filled the entire Zhuxintang. The mist carried thick water vapor and the unique burning smell of metal cooling. It was so white that you couldn't even see your fingers.
