The backyard of Zhuxinfang was completely silent.
Everyone stared intently at the location of Furnace Number One.
There, Master Lin was panting heavily, drenched in sweat, and looked like he was about to collapse.
Even with his advanced cultivation at the peak of the Bone and Tendon Realm, after working the bellows for more than two hours straight and having to concentrate on controlling the heat, he still felt he couldn't eat much.
Lu Qing was also covered in sweat, breathing heavily, indicating that he had expended a lot of energy.
This meteorite iron is far superior to ordinary iron; each hammer blow requires considerable mental effort from him.
Even he felt his physical strength was excessively depleted after forging the piece of extraterrestrial meteorite into shape.
Although both were tired, they were in excellent spirits.
Their eyes were shining as they looked at the anvil.
On that surface, the piece of extraterrestrial meteorite iron that Lu Qing had brought had completely changed its appearance.
It transformed into a rough black longsword, with a simple design, very similar to the one Lu Qing had used before.
Of course, what amazed Master Lin the most was the strange pattern on the longsword that resembled water ripples, flames, and lightning.
It appears as if it were created by nature, and in a daze, it seems to reveal a certain mysterious aura that is captivating.
"The patterns are naturally formed, as if bestowed by heaven. This blade blank has already entered the ranks of divine weapons, and it is the most superior divine weapon!" said Master Lin Nannan.
He stared in fascination at the strange patterns on the knife.
Having spent most of his life forging iron and creating countless weapons, this was the first time he had ever seen a true divine weapon pattern.
Lu Qing was also intently watching the rough shape of the long sword.
Then, amidst the intense red light, a barely perceptible wisp of purple light appeared in his field of vision.
【Divine Weapon Prototype: Forged from extraterrestrial meteorite iron through over ten thousand hammerings, this prototype has reached the level of a top-tier divine weapon.】
【Embracing All: The meteorite iron from outer space is of a unique material, possessing great versatility. This blade blank can accommodate multiple elemental forces, including metal, wood, water, earth, wind, fire, thunder, and lightning.】
【Indestructible: This blade blank is extremely sturdy. Once truly sharpened, it can cut through iron like mud, cleave water, and split mountains with ease.】
【Embryo of a Magic Weapon: Due to its exceptionally superior material, if properly nurtured and refined, this blade can continuously transform and evolve, potentially becoming a magical artifact or even a spiritual weapon.】
"There's even a hint of purple!"
Seeing the information appear on the blade blank, Lu Qing was pleasantly surprised.
It truly lives up to its reputation as a rare treasure that even the Li Huo Sect once longed for and highly praised.
This extraterrestrial meteorite iron is only in its rough forging stage, yet it already displays a hint of purple supernatural light.
It should be noted that the Qiankun Qi Bag in his hand and the Li Huo Cauldron in the underground cave of the Wei family are only purple in color.
It's easy to imagine the immense potential of this blade blank.
The information that emerged on the blade blank also confirms this.
It can not only accommodate multiple types of power, but also continuously evolve and transform, making it truly magical.
Lu Qing naturally did not believe that this was due to his own forging skills.
Although everyone in Zhuxinfang admired him greatly.
But he was very self-aware.
His forging skills were actually only at a beginner level, and were worlds apart from those master weapon refiners of the Li Huo Sect.
The reason this blade blank can reach such a quality is 99% due to the extraordinary nature of the meteorite iron itself.
Its material is simply superb.
"Divine weapon!"
The others standing outside gaped in astonishment upon hearing Master Lin's words.
Even Wei Xinghe was shocked and taken aback.
Even the Wei family only has one such divine weapon.
That was the sword our ancestors used.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qing forged a piece so easily.
This is something that even the true masters of casting in Zhongzhou probably couldn't do.
"Young Master Lu, do you still need our Forging Workshop to sharpen and polish this sword?"
Master Lin became even more humble towards Lu Qing, and asked cautiously.
"No need, I have other uses for this knife, so I won't sharpen it for now. I'll just trouble the old craftsman to make me a scabbard," Lu Qing said, shaking his head.
Once you understand the potential of the blade blank, it would be unwise to rush into sharpening it.
Moreover, such a divine weapon no longer needs to be sharpened by manual polishing.
Once Lu Qing has truly refined it, its divine sharpness will naturally be revealed, becoming incomparably sharp.
"That's easy, young master. Don't worry, I'll have the scabbard made and deliver it to your residence tomorrow."
Hearing Lu Qing's answer, Master Lin felt a little disappointed, but also secretly relieved.
To be honest, if Lu Qing really handed over this blade blank to him to sharpen and polish, he might not dare to do so.
After all, this is a prototype of a divine weapon. Even a master blacksmith might not be able to forge one in their entire life.
He was just a lowly blacksmith, not even a master blacksmith. What right did he have to dare to sharpen such a weapon?
He asked Master Lin for a strip of cloth, wrapped the knife blank around it, carried it on his back, and prepared to leave with Wei Xinghe.
Lu Qing originally wanted to forge another sword for his master, but the meteorite iron from outer space was too extraordinary. Just forging a blade blank had already consumed most of his energy.
Master's precious sword can only be reforged on another day.
When Lu Qing and Wei Xinghe came out of the Zhuxin Workshop, they saw a large crowd gathered outside.
Among them are some martial artists with exceptionally strong qi and blood.
After a moment's thought, he realized that he had probably made too much noise while forging the blade, which had alerted some people with ulterior motives nearby.
He didn't explain, and simply left with Wei Xinghe.
The people who were waiting outside originally wanted to find out what exactly happened inside the Zhuxin Workshop.
However, when they saw Lu Qing and Wei Xinghe, they were all stunned and stared at them blankly.
All those previous thoughts vanished without a trace, and I dared not entertain them again.
So until the two left, no one dared to step forward to stop them. They simply watched them leave with awe, not daring to move an inch.
"call!"
Once Lu Qing and his companion had completely disappeared, the spies breathed a sigh of relief, exchanged bitter smiles, and were covered in cold sweat.
They didn't even dare to think about going to the Zhuxin Workshop to inquire about information anymore.
Without a doubt, the commotion that had been going on in Zhuxin Workshop all morning was definitely related to Lu Qing and Wei Xinghe.
And the identities of these two individuals are increasingly significant.
Especially Lu Qing, who is now considered by various forces in the city to be the most untouchable person, whose weight is even greater than that of the Wei family!
Who would dare to pry into matters concerning them?
If I were to find out something I shouldn't know, that could be a real disaster.
Lu Qing was unaware that he had been listed as a taboo figure by various forces in the city.
In the following days, after regaining his strength, he went to Zhuxinfang twice more.
Besides crafting some small trinkets, he also used a piece of exotic iron from the Casting Workshop's collection to forge another divine weapon of the highest level for his master.
However, the potential of this divine weapon is far inferior to that of his battle blade; it can only be considered an ordinary divine weapon with almost no possibility of evolution.
It wasn't that Lu Qing didn't want to forge a meteorite iron sword for his master as well.
However, the remaining extraterrestrial meteorite iron in his Qiankun Qi Bag is now too large.
With his current abilities, cutting through extraterrestrial meteorite iron would still be too difficult.
In addition, the previously prepared flammable liquid has been almost completely used up by him.
Without the igniting liquid to produce the blue flames, the furnace in the Casting Workshop simply couldn't burn the extraterrestrial meteorite iron.
Therefore, Lu Qingzhi was able to settle for second best and spend a large sum of money to buy a piece of rare iron treasured by Master Lin, so that he could forge an ordinary divine weapon for his master.
Of course, even though it was just an ordinary divine weapon, Dr. Chen was still extremely surprised and delighted when he received this gift.
Even Wei Shanhai was quite surprised when he saw that precious sword.
Because he discovered that the divine weapon was of no less quality than the sword he was using.
Upon learning that the divine weapon was forged by Lu Qing, Wei Shanhai was stunned and speechless for a long time.
After forging that divine weapon, Lu Qing and the others stayed for several more days.
On this day, they finally bid farewell to the Wei family.
