Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 173 Cold Flame, Reverse Engraving, Shocking Dragon Formation
The long-forgotten foundry, the long-forgotten past...
Lu Huang placed his hand on the Wanhua Furnace and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
A cold wave hit him, he raised his head, no longer hesitated, held the stove with both hands, and a white flame jumped up from the bottom of the stove!
In conjunction with the cold wave, his star power did not restrain at all and extended directly out.
"Uh..." Luo Fei didn't expect Lu Huang's move to be so casual.
There is no process of accumulating fire!
The special skill that had not been used for so many years did not feel unfamiliar at all when it appeared again as Tang Zheng and Luo Fei had imagined.
Tang Zheng felt at this moment as if he was getting ready to watch a movie. He hadn't even bought his popcorn and Coke and hadn't even sat down, but the movie had already started!
Lu Huang raised and swept his hands, his sleeves spreading out in the breeze, and every movement was extremely relaxed and comfortable.
Tang Zheng immediately understood.
He had practiced the pressing method for three days and had already mastered it to the level of flowing water. But how long had Lu Huang practiced various casting techniques?
It may take more than thirty years!
If Tang Zheng's level is equivalent to practicing a foreign language to the point where he can speak it fluently, then Luo Fei is at the level where he can fully communicate in this foreign language, and Lu Huang is at the level where he can speak many foreign languages as fluently as his mother tongue!
In front of a true master, Tang Zheng simply gave up his playful thoughts. All he needed to do now was to learn, watch, and appreciate!
Lu Huang stretched out his hand and flicked it, and the material for the first fan bone was put into the furnace...
The cold flame, which seemed to have no temperature, instantly enveloped the three pieces of ore, and then the second and third ones were gradually put into the furnace.
call……
The flame in the Wanhua Furnace rose up against the wind and in an instant it split into fourteen groups!
Each cluster is like a snow-white plum blossom, some are big and some are small, tightly gluing together the mineral materials that should be cast into a fan rib.
The surging star power rose along the furnace wall, gathering into trickles that hit the different balls of cold flames.
The star power in the Wanhua furnace was lively and active, and it should have been shining brightly and blazing...
However, Tang Zheng, who was standing right next to the Wanhua Furnace, didn't feel any heat at all!
Although it didn't feel cold, it didn't feel hot either. The calm and gentle temperature formed the sharpest contrast with the surging and lively star power inside.
Lu Huang's actions were very fast...
After the fourteen fan ribs are put into the furnace, they are quickly intertwined and shaped, as if white plum buds are gradually blooming, revealing the still green fruits inside.
"Art..." Two words came quietly from Hua Yingxiu's sweet lips.
But Lu Huang's art is obviously more than that!
When the cold flames were extinguished, they did not go out directly, but directly penetrated into the fan bones, leaving dark flowers on the back of the fan bones. Every time a dark flower was pressed down, it increased the resonance of the star power...
The Wanhua Furnace really lives up to its reputation!
Then, Lu Huang tapped the furnace lightly, and a new cold flame rose up, enveloping the fourteen fan bones and the Fubi Broken Chen Stone...
When it came to this step, Lu Huang's forehead was slightly sweaty!
Whether Tang Zheng's fan dagger can have its parts replaced at will depends on this move!
The Fubi Broken Star Stone burst out with a nearly explosive force in the cold flames, and Lu Huang immediately swept the processed fan pendant into the furnace...
Boom!
Lu Huang used his hands like a cover and pressed all the materials into the bottom of the furnace!
Only the Fu Bi Shattered Star Stone has the strongest ability of coordination and star power inheritance. As long as he succeeds in soaking the fire this time, if he wants to replace any parts in the future, he only needs to take off the original parts and cast them together with the new parts, and it will be done.
Then, Lu Huang flipped his palms...
The Wanhua Furnace was like its lid had been opened, and the light like fireworks rushed up to the sky, exploding into blossoming flowers!
One furnace produces thousands of flowers!
However, except Hua Yingxiu, the other three people didn't even glance up at the sky.
All their attention was on Lu Huang's furnace!
"Out of the oven." Lu Huang shouted, and all the parts in the oven flew out. He caught them one by one and placed them on a piece of felt cloth that he had prepared.
There are fourteen fan ribs, each of which has a little starlight remaining on it, but the color is different.
The other parts that flew out of the furnace made Tang Zheng dare not blink.
The spring glows coldly, the dagger blade is aggressive, the fan pendant is exquisite, and the silk thread is strong and powerful...
The Tianluo Strange Needle Box, the Jueying Dagger, the Qiteng Love Thread, the Xiguang Shield, every piece of top-level equipment that Tang Zheng had been obsessed with in his previous life, has now taken shape!
And what Lu Huang had to do next was to assemble them all onto a fan!
A folding fan that looks harmless!
…
Lu Huang wielded the knife very quickly.
A small purple-gold knife picked up drops of precious purple-gold ink and continuously dropped them on the fan bones.
The fourteen fan ribs, the two inner layers of the fan leaves, the fan pendant, and the silk thread pulled out after pulling the fan pendant were all placed under Lou Huang's carving knife.
One cut, one dot, like a dragonfly skimming the water, without stopping at each stroke.
Tang Zheng couldn't help but be amazed when he saw it. No wonder Ban Yiluo said that only a very strong caster could use purple gold well - engraving arrays was really a complicated science.
With the little array-carving skills he had learned from others, he hadn't even gotten to the basics. The most he could do was make a few bombs and lift the roof a few times for fun.
The purple gold ink seemed calm, falling slowly along with the carving of the carving knife, but Tang Zheng knew how violent this thing actually was.
The powerful ability to communicate with star power can cause an explosion if one is not careful.
"Uncle Lu, this is...reversing the clock..." Luo Fei said in a low voice at the side.
"Reverse?" Tang Zheng asked.
"From the last stroke, he started carving the formation until it was completed, but he couldn't find the starting point at all!" Luo Fei said: "He used the Jinglong formation... If he can't find the starting point, he can't break the formation and destroy the weapon!"
Although the blacksmith rarely fights, once he does, it is no joke.
When shooting a person, shoot the horse first; when killing a person, destroy the weapon first!
They found the starting points of the array engraved on their opponent's weapons and were often able to destroy the weapons before the battle.
Therefore, if it is not necessary, no one wants to fight a powerful blacksmith head-on.
"Oh..." Tang Zheng knew that Lu Huang's trick of carving in reverse, starting with the end point of the stroke, was to prevent him from being destroyed by other casters when using the fan dagger.
Although Tang Zheng's casting skills can only be said to be entry-level, one can still guess how difficult reverse engraving is.
It is like writing an article from the first word, the first gesture, all the way to the last word and the last gesture, which is definitely easier. But if you have to start from the last stroke of the article and write backwards stroke by stroke, it would be very time-consuming and laborious.
This is only possible if you know the article by heart.
And Lu Huang obviously knew the Jinglong Formation by heart!
"The Jinglong formation has two layers. The bottom layer increases the resonance of star power, and the outer layer strengthens the extension of star power. As long as this formation is not destroyed, you can use your original martial arts to at least increase the power by 20%!" Luo Fei looked at Lu Huang's sword strikes with envy - it was obvious that he was not able to do it yet.
Lu Huang's star power was extremely strong. He controlled the furnace and cast for several hours in a row, and then carved and assembled the formation for several hours in a row. His face was always as calm as a rock, without even a drop of sweat.
As demanding as he was on the details of Tang Zheng and Luo Fei's duel, he was ten or a hundred times more demanding on his own casting!
Moreover, for him, he opened the long-sealed Wanhua Furnace, which had a long-lost cold flame rising up, and it was also a recasting of his forging heart...
He also cannot fail.
However, his forging heart was not as fragile as Luo Fei's. He put pressure on himself, but this pressure was completely transformed into motivation.
He assembled the array immediately after carving it. Every fan bone and every spring seemed to create a shadow in his hands...
Lu Huang was lost in his own world. Tang Zheng, Luo Fei and Hua Yingxiu could no longer see his entire assembly process.
Snap!
As the last hidden weapon was loaded into , Tang Zheng heard a crisp and pleasant sound, just like the magazine of a famous gun was closed.
An exquisite folding fan appeared before his eyes.
"Uh..." Tang Zheng subconsciously glanced at Hua Yingxiu.
Although the folding fan is still a folding fan, it is obvious that while he was concentrating on practicing the Yacui method, Hua Yingxiu and Lu Huang made very minor modifications to the appearance of his fan dagger.
So, this folding fan looks even cooler than his design drawing!
Originally, Tang Zheng's folding fan was not designed to be low-key. It was slightly modified by the Yaoshan tribe's flower crown, which was like the finishing touch, instantly raising it from the level of a "decoration" to the level of a "work of art".
Lu Huang had not shed a single drop of sweat for six hours, but when the folding fan was completely finished, a few drops of sweat oozed from his temples...
In fact, no matter how powerful a two-star dagger is, it can't put any pressure on Lu Huang!
But the facts left him no choice but to believe it.
He touched the sweat on his forehead and was stunned for a moment...
Then, a colorful light emerged from the fan dagger, and suddenly it shot straight into the sky!
Lu Huang's eyes were always calm no matter when the cold flames rose, when he attacked from behind, or when the Shocking Dragon Formation was formed. However, when the five-colored light burst out from the fan dagger and instantly spread out in the night sky like colorful auspicious clouds, he could no longer remain calm!
"How...how is this possible?" Luo Fei also looked at the dagger in Tang Zheng's hand, and then looked at the colorful clouds that were expanding in the sky, "Can a two-star dagger also become famous?"
"What the hell?" Tang Zheng saw that Lu Huang, Luo Fei, and even Hua Yingxiu had reactions, but he was the only one who knew nothing.
