Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue asked, “Have you decided yet? Is it going to be the big hamr or the small hamr?” She waved her hands around, causing the big hamr and the small hamr to impressively spin in her hands.
Song Shuhang asked, “Which one among the big hamr and the small hamr is better?”
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue replied, “Each has its own advantages. The advantage of the big hamr is that it’s heavy, making the weapon forged by it strong and durable. The small hamr is small and flexible, causing it to be better for finer parts.”
Song Shuhang said, “Then... Why not both?”
He recalled the design of his life-bound magical treasure, the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’. The outer casing of the glove needed to be as strong as possible, while the small parts inside had to be done extrely precisely.
“Custor, you have chosen the right option.” Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue’s lips curled up. “The big hamr and the small hamr only work best when used together. Moreover, it is only by using both hamrs that I am able to live up to my forging level.”
The sea turtle’s mouth twitched faintly, but this ti it didn’t say anything.
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue said, “Ti is vital. After I finish the treasure for you, I still have to buy all the items on the list. Where is your ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’ design? You only have to deal with the core part and you can leave the rest to .”
Song Shuhang took out a pen and paper, quickly wrote down the forging technique of the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’ that was in his mind, and handed it to Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue.
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue glanced at the design and the forging technique of the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’ and nodded. “This magical treasure isn’t bad, it’s quite creative. Now it’s ti to choose which material is to be used for its forging...”
She glanced at Song Shuhang’s pile of materials again, and said, “The prototype of your ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’ glove needs the bone of a whale spirit beast or a whale monster. You have six kinds of whale spirit beast and three kinds of whale monster whale bones here, all of which are at the Fifth Stage Realm. Which one among these do you want to use for the forging? ”
“Fairy, can you use this?” Song Shuhang pointed at Sage Monarch lon Eater’s rib bones.
The corners of Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue’s mouth twitched. “Of course I’d be able to use those, but I don’t recomnd that, as you would be wasting the Eighth Stage Sage Whale whale bones. You’re only having a Fourth Stage magical treasure forged for you, and Fifth Stage materials would already be good enough to do so. Actually, in my opinion, using Fifth Stage materials for this would already be quite wasteful. If you were to directly use these Sage Whale’s bones, it would truly be no different from throwing them away.”
Song Shuhang said, “It’s fine. Anyway, I still have so more whale bones in stock. Furthermore, the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’ is going to be my life-bound magical treasure. Even if I do plan on forging the Combined Magical Treasure in the future, I will definitely use the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’ as its core. As such, the stronger the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’ is, the better.”
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue: “...”
The sea turtle yawned. “That which is obtained easily will often not be cherished. Whether it is feelings or treasures. Fellow Daoist Song, one must cherish what one has!”
“The bones of an Eighth Stage Whale are indeed very precious. Do you not want to give it more thought?” Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue also asked.
Song Shuhang thought about it for a mont, and asked, “Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue, about how many of these bones do you need to forge the gloves?”
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue estimated it, and replied, “This bone is huge, so one would be enough.”
“Then it’s completely fine,” Song Shuhang said. “I have more than 16 such whale bones in my hands, so using one won’t affect much. Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue, just use this whale bone to forge the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior’ gloves.”
F*ck, sixteen? That many?
No wonder this guy doesn’t cherish the Eighth Stage whale bone at all.
“In that case, I’ll just do as you say.” Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue extended her hand and lifted the Whale Sacred Bone onto the forging table.
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue then said, “Oh, Seven Daoist Nas... cough~ Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song. Before I start hamring, I have to remind you of one thing. The Eighth Stage whale bone is extrely hard. I will have to use a secret technique of the Heavy tal Sect to temper it... As such, you need to be ntally prepared.”
Song Shuhang subconsciously asked, “Is the price per strike going to increase?”
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue said, “The price won’t increase, but the bone of a Sage Whale is difficult to temper. Doing so will take a long ti, and with that, the total price will definitely increase.”
Song Shuhang nodded. “That makes sense.”
“Then, thank you for your patronage!” Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue’s arms beca coated in dark tal color, similar to when Song Shuhang used the ❮Steel Hands Technique❯.
Afterward, she took another deep breath and urged the secret technique of the Heavy tal Sect once more. After that, the color of her hands changed and turned into a golden color, just as if they had been cast in gold.
Her eyes were fixed on the steps needed for forging the ‘Defiant Whale Warrior Gloves’; she was etching the steps into her mind.
In the next mont, the two hamrs began to move.
“Ding~”
The big hamr struck the whale bone, causing a burst of bright sparks. As the big hamr fell, flas rose from the forging table, making it so that the whale bone was encased in fla.
The fire rose along with the movents of the hamr, rising high up and dancing in the air.
Song Shuhang rubbed his eyes, and wondered if he had been seeing things—as he watched Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue’s big hamr hit, there was a fla that flowed up the hamr, and then a string of characters condensed above the sledgehamr.
100
I’m probably just thinking too much, how could flas possibly turn into numbers? Song Shuhang thought.
“Haah!” At this mont, Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue shouted and used the big hamr to strike the bone once more.
“Ding~”
Another fla rose along the big hamr and turned into a ‘ 100’.
The flas rose higher and higher, and eventually condensed the number 200 before disappearing.
F*ck, I wasn’t seeing things!
Song Shuhang had clearly just seen what had happened.
The flas really did turn into a number!
While he was in thought, Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue swung the hamr for the third ti.
“Ding~”
Flas rose and turned into a ‘ 100’ again. The flaming text rose higher and higher before finally turning into a ‘300’ and disappearing.
Heavens, the flaming text is a counter.
Every ti Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue struck down with the big hamr, a ‘ 100’ would appear, and then this number would add to the total.
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue said, “Very good, it’s coming together fairly well.”
In the next mont, her arms waved around quickly.
100
100
100
❄️❄️❄️
Song Shuhang watched as the flaming text continued to appear right in front of him, just like a screen being flooded, with each line of text moving past his eyes at breakneck speed.
“Ding, ding, ding, ding~”
Every strike was another ‘ 100’.
This ant that Song Shuhang had to pay another 100 spirit stones.
Song Shuhang couldn’t help but feel his heart start hurting.
Every ti he saw another flaming ‘ 100’ text, it was as if an arrow had penetrated his heart and liver.
This is really heart-rending.
After these few hits from the big hamr, the price had already gone up to a few thousands of First Stage spirit stones.
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue paused before saying in a pleasant voice, “Great, the Whale Sacred Bone has responded. Co on, resonate with ! Obey , I will make you into the most perfect magic weapon.”
While she spoke, her other arm also began moving.
The small hamr had begun swinging.
Using the two hamrs together was the kingly path!
As there were now two hamrs being waved around, the speed at which the text moved on the screen had more than doubled. The degree of the heart-rending feeling similarly increased by several tis.
“Ding, ding~”
“Ding, ding~”
The flaming text in front of Song Shuhang beca a combination of ‘ 100’s and ‘ 50’s.
The screen’s flooding speed had beco even faster.
With every glance, one’s sight would be filled with rows of ‘ 100’s and ‘ 50’s.
With every blink of an eye, another wave of flaming text would rise.
Truly heart-rending.
This screen of flaming text represented the number of spirit stones! This was a screen filled with spirit stones.
Fairy, could you turn off this counting function?
At this ti, the sea turtle patted Song Shuhang with its forelimb.
Song Shuhang turned his head while a pained expression could be seen on his face. “Senior Turtle, is sothing wrong?”
Senior Turtle asked, “Is your heart in pain?”
Song Shuhang replied, “It’s not really in pain, but this screen filled with ‘ 100’s and ‘ 50’s makes my heart feel quite stifled.”
“Your heart feeling stifled is normal. This is the style of the Heavy tal Sect. It’s clear that a trip to the blacksmith would actually only cost you about a Sixth Stage or Seventh Stage spirit stone, but regardless of who it is, when they see this screen of flaming text, they would always end up feeling their heart beco stifled.” Senior Turtle chuckled, and said, “I can teach you a way to adapt to the flaming text.”
Song Shuhang asked, “What is it?”
The sea turtle said, “Use a Seventh or Eighth Stage spirit stone as the reference point. Then, simply think of 100 as 0.0001 or an even smaller number, that way you won’t feel as stifled.”
Song Shuhang replied, “That makes sense!”
After that, he turned his head and continued to look at the screen of ‘ 100’s and ‘ 50’s.
After a mont, he sighed.
Song Shuhang said, “I can’t do it.”
The sea turtle said, “What?”
“I tried to change the numbers while having a Seventh Stage spirit stone in mind, but then when I saw the ‘ 100’, I felt that it was adding 100 Seventh Stage spirit stones.”
The sea turtle: “...”
“Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding~”
The sound of the two hamrs striking down was like a poignant symphony.
It was impressive but also caused one to shed tears.
❄️❄️❄️
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue’s level as a blacksmith was really high, and it could even be said to be at the level of a sect master.
Song Shuhang did not understand the art of forging. Nevertheless, the sea turtle at the side was full of praise for Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue.
While the two hamr were unceasingly swung around, Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue would also occasionally throw in so refining materials into the flas.
“This fla is no longer the forging fire stored in the Palace of Winter,” the sea turtle said in a deep voice.
At the beginning, Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue had still used the Palace of Winter’s forging fire on the whale sage bone. However, halfway through, she had changed the fire.
At this ti, the flas around Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue were really lifelike, and from ti to ti there would even be sothing with the appearance of a Phoenix that would co forth.
Every ti she swung the hamr, the clear cry of a Phoenix would accompany the strike.
Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue suddenly said, “It’s the Nine Virtues Phoenix Fire. My current realm is limited to the Sixth Stage Realm. If I were to rely on my own strength to temper the Eighth Stage Profound Sage bone, it would be extrely difficult to do so. As such, I’m borrowing so strength from this special fla.”
At this ti, she had beads of sweat streaming down her face. So beads of sweat would flow down along her cheek to her neck before continuing on to slide along her beautiful clavicle.
So beads of sweat would be stopped by her long eyelashes, but when she blinked, they would drip down. However, the beads of sweat that ended up dripping from her eyelashes would evaporate in mid-air due to the Phoenix Fla.
Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue smiled bitterly, and said, “The only problem is that the temperature of the fla is quite high.”
The sea turtle asked, “Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue Daoist, do you need little friend Song to wipe your sweat?”
During the refining process, if sweat droplets were to fall onto the weapon being refined, it could be very troubleso.
Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue replied, “No, it’s fine.”
The temperature of the Phoenix Fire was too high, and with Song Shuhang’s strength, he would imdiately get burnt if he were to get too close.
