Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 852 Jiu Hua Divine Cauldron

Chapter 852: Chapter 852 Jiu Hua Divine Cauldron

Although Ye You seed calm on the surface, his heart fluttered uncontrollably at the thought of Qin Sisi undressing and bathing deep in the cave, a secret desire clawing at him.

However, as night fell, Ye You looked out at the increasingly dim light outside the cave and heaved a helpless sigh.

When Qin Sisi had finished bathing and changing her clothes, she erged from the depths of the cave to find Ye You’s tall figure gone, replaced by a small black cat sitting in front of the campfire.

Qin Sisi felt a pang of heartache and went over to gently pick up Ye You.

Ye You lifted his head to look at her and said softly, "Very pretty."

Qin Sisi was wearing a dress that Ye You had given her before he left, a fabric that was water and fire-resistant, suitable for combat. Although it wasn’t ti for a fight, Qin Sisi had put it on especially because Ye You was with her.

Since Ye You wore black, Qin Sisi also chose that black dress which made her figure appear even more delicate, easily encircled by a grasp. Her wet hair hung down her back, exuding a faint delicate fragrance.

Qin Sisi slightly bowed her head and smiled softly, then set Ye You down beside her and whispered, "I’ll grill the at!"

"Do you know how?" Ye You had never seen Qin Sisi grill at before.

"You teach !" Qin Sisi was optimistic. During the fire magic class, she had helped Teacher Huohuan stew at and felt it wasn’t that difficult.

Ye You wasn’t confident in Qin Sisi’s grilling skills, but since she wanted to try, he could only oblige and went through the details of grilling at.

Qin Sisi felt she had done everything exactly as Ye You instructed, but the flavor of the grilled at paled in comparison to that which Ye You cooked himself.

The outside was slightly burned, the at a bit tough, and despite using the sa seasonings, the taste was quite lacking.

Qin Sisi scratched her head embarrassedly and said, "Maybe I should try again."

Ye You took a bite of the grilled at with a smile and replied, "No need, I think it’s quite delicious."

Pleased, Qin Sisi and Ye You devoured the slightly burned Blasting Rabbit together.

After dinner, Ye You told Qin Sisi to rest while he planned to enter his Portable Space to practice Alchemy.

Qin Sisi blinked and said, "But I’m not the slightest bit sleepy, I also want to practice magic. What can I practice easily here?"

Ye You thought for a mont, raised his paw, and took out a forging furnace from his Portable Space, setting it squarely before Qin Sisi.

"Since I promised Teacher Moliu to practice Alchemy diligently and might not have ti for blacksmithing in the future, I’ll give this forging furnace to you," said Ye You calmly. After enduring many trials, he had gained a deeper understanding of the concept of "choice."

He had originally planned to balance both Auxiliary Skills, letting their level progress naturally, as his focus remained on the powerful Attribute Skills.

However, after making a promise to Teacher Moliu to elevate his Alchemy to a higher level to break a curse, he realized he had to make a choice with limited ti and energy. Therefore, Ye You decided to temporarily give up practicing blacksmithing.

Originally he felt so regret that the hard-earned forging furnace would go unused, but it just so happened that Qin Sisi ntioned she wanted to seriously learn blacksmithing. Ye You, taking the opportunity, happily gifted her the forging furnace.

Qin Sisi stepped forward and gave the forging furnace a serious look-over.

Although she had no experience with forging furnaces yet, she could tell just by looking at its exterior that Ye You’s furnace was much more refined than the one Teacher Wuduo used in class.

The entire body of the furnace, as well as its four legs, were sturdier, and on the furnace’s body, nine divine beasts of various shapes and expressions were carved. The patterns of plants and flowers were etched on the four legs, all executed with fine craftsmanship.

Upon closer inspection, one could see a faint purple glow emanating from the body of the furnace.

Ye You said, "This is the Jiu Hua Divine Cauldron I fortuitously acquired during my experiences at Jiutuo Mountain after I graduated. It is said that the nine great divine beasts each infused a thread of spiritual power into it, so this forging furnace is incredibly sturdy. It will not be damaged by long-term exposure to fire and heat, plus it has a certain degree of sentience and will cooperate with the user to ensure that the items forged reach the highest level of quality."

Qin Sisi was so thrilled she nearly wanted to pick up Ye You and spin her around in circles—eting Ye You this ti had yielded such imnse rewards. But then she thought better of it and decided to exhibit so restraint.

She circled around the Jiu Hua Divine Cauldron, again and again, itching to start forging right away. She smiled at Ye You and said, "Hearing you talk about it like this, I really want to start forging imdiately, but unfortunately, I lack materials."

A good cook can’t perform miracles without rice—no matter what was to be forged, materials were indispensable.

Ye You laughed lightly and said, "Is that so difficult?"

Speaking thus, Ye You then lifted her paw and took out a black lump from her portable space, telling Qin Sisi, "This is all I have left; it should be enough to forge two swords or sothing similar."

Qin Sisi picked up the black lump and realized it had a significant weight, much heavier than the raw iron Teacher Wuduo used.

"What material is this? It’s so heavy!" Qin Sisi asked, puzzled.

Ye You replied, "This is black iron, and it’s thousand-year black iron at that."

After pondering for a mont, Qin Sisi asked, "Is this material very precious?"

Ye You nodded in response, "It is indeed much more valuable than raw iron, but no matter. Feel free to use it. Since you enjoy forging, I will help you collect more precious materials when you go on your experiences in the future."

Qin Sisi looked at the weighty piece of black iron in her hands and felt a bit reluctant to use it. After all, she had just begun learning to forge and should have been practicing with the most common raw iron by rights.

"Don’t you have sothing a bit more ordinary?" Qin Sisi furrowed her brows and asked Ye You.

Ye You, caught between laughter and tears, shook her head, "I really don’t have that."

Qin Sisi sighed and said with resignation, "Well, then, all right!"

Since that was the case, she would have to be wasteful. Let her, a beginner in the art of forging, have a go using precious materials and a mystical forging furnace, just to see what level the weapons she forged could reach.

Qin Sisi wanted to split the black iron into two pieces, but despite several attempts using the magic skill of the Vigor Gold Knife, she only managed to leave a small dent in the black iron.

In the end, she could only ask Ye You to lend a hand.

Qin Sisi stored half of the black iron in her storage ring and placed the other half on the Jiu Hua Divine Cauldron to begin forging.

She ignited flas inside the Jiu Hua Divine Cauldron, using gold attribute magic to purify the black iron, waiting until the texture of the iron softened. Seizing the mont, she used the power of gold attribute magic to forge a sharp dagger, shaping the black iron into the form of a sword.
