Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
“Hello, Elder Sauk.”
“Where are Mr. Adolf and Dicas?”
The dwarf elder pointed in the direction of [Dashing Sword Immortal, and Making Artifact Online] and said in bafflement, “They said that they will only go over to have a look…”
The dwarves looked over curiously and wondered, “What is taking them so long?”
“Um…” The blue-robed old man looked embarrassed.
“I’m sorry for the delay,” The old man said immediately, “We’ll go call them over.”
-Ten minutes later-
The dwarves stood on the side and exchanged a look of bafflement. “What is taking them so long…”
“My goodness! Isn’t this Elder Sauk…” At this moment, some alchemists noticed the situation over here.
“I’m surprised that you’re here!”
“Where are the people of Alchemist Union?” An alchemist frowned. “They are having less and less manners. Why didn’t they send people over to receive you guys?”
“Um…” The dwarves exchanged a look and said, “We came with Mr. Adolf. Adolf has always been our friend.”
“Oh, I see,” those alchemists asked, “Then where’s Mr. Adolf…”
Elder Sauk pointed in the direction of [Dashing Sword Immortal, and Making Artifact Online].
“Should we go over and remind him. Oh, they are just leaving our guests here, and it is improper.”
With that said, these alchemists walked over.
“…”
– Twenty minutes later –
“What’s happening?!” Totally forgotten, the dwarves scratched their heads in puzzlement.
…
In the great hall of Alchemist Union, while wearing a metal mask to protect him from the smell, Leo was holding a bottle of dark-green liquid with gurgling bubbles. “You must be careful with the poison of this Poisonous Arrow Frog. Its stinky smell might suffocate you and make you regret your existence, friends.”
“Our Master Leo is working efficiently. It seems like an excellent potion is about to be made. Let’s see what Mr. Leo is going to do with it.”
“Sharp Light Potion,” Leo said confidently, “I’ll make a Sharp Light Potion that can infuse the Ultimate Blade Spell into weapons.”
…
Meanwhile, Master Lam, the master sword blacksmith with bulging muscles, was pumping the bellows with great efforts to stoke fire over a piece of silver-colored metal. The furnace had a blue flame with white threads in it, looking different from ordinary flames.
“We’re casting an excellent compound battle sword,” Lam said while pumping the bellows, “We must hammer this block of star-patterned iron flat, so it can completely wrap around this black ink steel.”
The clanking hammering sounds came from the visual projection.
…
At this moment, the dwarves had also walked over to the Spiritual Spell Visual Projection of [Dashing Sword Immortal, and Making Artifact Online] subconsciously and began to watch.
On the screen was a huge round platform engraved with a Tai Chi pattern which contained the fish-shaped Yin and Yang.
The Yang Fish represented fire. It looked like a giant vein in earth that was filled with lava, and people could see hot lava-filled grooves on the dark-red stone platform.
On the opposite side, clear ice was situated on the edge of the heated, dark-red stone platform. The Yin Fish represented ice. Looking up, one could see that this side of the sword platform was covered and sealed in ice.
This was the Heaven-Abiding Sword Platform in the Qionghua Faction.
In the position of the fish eye on the sword platform was a huge round sword creation platform that was built on rocks.
“Now, we’ve got all the materials.” On the Spiritual Spell Visual Projection, a young man stood before the hot sword creation platform and took out all the materials he had prepared. The young man wore a blue-and-white robe and a green jade headpiece and carried a sword case on his back.
“Today, we’ll forge a Ghost Blade which is relatively simple to make.” While he spoke, he took out the materials. One was an orange-colored red iron ore which emitted traces of spiritual essence, and the other main material was an ember-colored Mystic Cloud Crystal which was as smooth as jade. He also took out two pieces of Kunwu Coal which were dark-green with a trace of purple. On the screen, Murong Ziying formed a sword-shaped hand gesture and directed the materials to float onto the sword platform with his spiritual essence.
“Then, we’ll open the sword furnace with the spell.” Murong Ziying used the sword creation spell of the Qionghua Faction. He made quick gestures, and his fingers danced nimbly like bees that were flying. Soon, the orange flames surged up in the huge sword furnace while the materials slowly melted at the bottom of the furnace.
In the furnace, flames surged up one after another like a blooming lotus flower of blazing flames.
With the movements of his fingers, pointing and directing, streaks of spiritual light fell into the lotus-flower-shaped flames, and the materials in the furnace seemed to be driven by an unknown force and began to merge, stretch, and take shape.
Finally, a thick sword embryo that looked like a red jade crystal lay on the bottom of the furnace.
“Now, this sword has taken its embryonic form. To forge it into the final form, we can use some common techniques. For example, we can hammer it with the force of wind and lightning.” Murong Ziying chanted in a low voice as a strong wind fluttered his robe and lifted him into the air. Sitting on the top of Kunlun Mountain, the Heaven-Abiding Sword Platform was very close to the sky. Soon, lightning bolts crashed down onto the sword embryo with vicious force as thunders rumbled.
Like invisible huge hammers, the crazy winds knocked onto the sword embryo with crisp and rhythmic sounds of flowing water. Gradually, the rough and cudgel-shaped sword embryo turned thinner and sharper.
At this moment, a large group of people was watching the Spiritual Spell Visual Projection.
“The alchemy in the East Continent works this way?! How come we never heard of it?!”
“It’s amazing!”
“Swords can be made like this?”
“Ahh-! I think I’ve fallen in love with this sword immortal! He’s so dashing!” a girl screamed.
The dwarves exchanged a look and then looked at Master Lam who was waving his hammer. They exclaimed with their hands on their foreheads, “My god!”
…
Meanwhile, Master Lam waved his hammer and struck the red star-patterned iron with sweat all over his body. While wiping off sweat from his forehead, he left a streak of black dust on his face.
He continued with his hammering.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
“Ladies! Gentlemen! Do you see that?! Master Lam’s masterpieces is almost ready!” The alchemist of Alchemy Union exclaimed passionately.
“…” Around the Spiritual Spell Visual Projection in the center of the great hall of Alchemist Union, there were only a couple dozens of people remaining.
“I think that the great hall in Alchemist Union must be bustling with crowds!” The alchemist yelled, “Cheer for him! Let me hear your enthusiasm!”
“Let’s go…” Some mercenaries nudged each other and said, “Let’s go and watch that ‘making artifact online’. That one is more interesting!”
