Chapter 1010: So Mysterious and Useful
“When is the right time?” asked Ling Chuxi while controlling her True Qi.
“Well… it depends on the feeling.” Gongxi Kuangdao thought for a long time and ended up answering vaguely.
No wonder he spent so many days forging a pig iron rod. He had spent so much time making it based on his gut feeling. So much for being the forging genius of the Gongxi clan! What of the others in the clan then? Ling Chuxi could not help but criticize him in her heart.
Knowing that it was useless to ask him any further, Ling Chuxi decided to calm down and figure it out herself.
A flame flew out from her palm and wrapped around the piece of iron essence. Under the high temperature, the iron essence emitted a fiery red light and gradually softened.
“Is it suitable or not?” Ling Chuxi never had any forging experience before, let alone known ‘the feeling’. So she hesitated for a moment when saw that the red light was getting brighter and brighter until it gradually turned white. She felt inexplicably nervous, it was her first time forging, and she didn’t want it to end in failure.
Although Gonxi Kuangdao wanted to see Ling Chuxi make a fool of herself, he had been immersed in forging for many years. Thus, when it really came to it, his mind would naturally become immersed in the process again and he started to feel nervous. Although the Gongxi clan’s forging techniques were wonderful, the risks were far greater than ordinary forging techniques. The process can easily flipper between success and failure within a blink of an eye. If one didn’t have many years of forging experience, it wouldn’t be easy to find the right timing.
Ling Chuxi used the Mind Training Chant and her concentration immediately became more immersed in the process to the point where she was able to pay attention to the subtlest changes in the iron essence. However, this time, her divine consciousness was unable to probe into the iron essence. She could only feel the flow of the heat flare on the surface.
“Why don’t we just go for it? It’s just a piece of iron essence anyway. It’s no big deal to scrap it.” Ling Chuxi still couldn’t find the so-called feeling Gongxi Kuangdao described so she wanted to just take a gamble.
Suddenly, a wonderful feeling emerged in her mind. Everything in front of her became abnormally slow, as if the whole world—time and space—had become stagnant.
Ling Chuxi was pleasantly surprised to find that her consciousness had suddenly entered the iron essence with ease. Under the high temperature of the smelting, the iron essence was flowing slowly like magma, which seemed very unsmooth as a small number of impurities were still hidden in the depths of the magma. Obviously, this was not the best time to forge it.
“Core of Martial Path!” Ling Chuxi suddenly realized that this was the miraculous effect of the Core of Martial Path.
When she was outside the Little Silver Ancient Mountain, she had easily defeated Ye Qianhe—who was supposedly stronger than her—by relying on the Core of Martial Path. However, she had never thought that apart from practising the Sword Heart Soul Breaking Technique, her Core of Martial Path would also have such an amazing advantage.
Everyone’s Core of Martial Path was different. Although Ling Chuxi’s Core of Martial Path could not cultivate the Celestial Area, it could still facilitate her practise of forging techniques.
Gongxi Kuangdao might have to rely on his ability to wait for and find the right feeling during forging but all Ling Chuxi had to do was use her Core of Martial Path
Ling Chuxi continued to perform her divine technique of using her divine consciousness to observe the changes in the iron essence while injecting True Qi into the Lava Fire Crystals to raise the temperature.
Soon, the inside of the iron essence became as smooth as a happy spring, and the few impurities that had been in it were squeezed to the surface. The best time to forge was finally here!
Ling Chuxi released her True Qi without hesitation and began to shape the metal. For a moment, Ling Chuxi was engulfed in excitement and had not thought about what to forge. She just looked at the small piece of iron essence and felt suddenly thought it might not be too bad to forge a small dagger.
