Chapter 173: Wanlian Divine Weapon, Embryo of Magical Treasure, Return

the Heart Forging Workshop’s backyard, a hush fell.

Everyone stared intently at furnace number one.

There, Old Craftsman Lin was panting heavily, sweating profusely, looking on the verge of collapse.

Even with his mastery of the Bones and Muscles realm, after pulling the bellows for over two hours, while concentrating on controlling the heat, he still felt a bit overwhelmed.

Lu Qing was also drenched in sweat, his breathing slightly panting,

having exerted considerable effort. This meteorite iron was truly not comparable to ordinary iron. Each blow of the hammer

demanded considerable effort. Even he, after forging the meteorite into shape, felt exhausted.

Despite their fatigue, both men were in high spirits.

Their eyes sparkled as they gazed at the anvil.

On it, the meteorite iron Lu Qing had brought had completely transformed.

It had become the rough blank of a simple black long sword, very similar to the one Lu Qing had previously used.

Of course, what amazed Master Lin the most were the bizarre patterns on the long sword that resembled water ripples, flames, and even lightning. They

seemed to be formed naturally, and in a trance, they seemed to exude a mysterious aura that captivated the heart.

“The patterns are naturally formed, as if bestowed by heaven. This sword blank has already entered the ranks of divine weapons, and it is the finest divine weapon!” Master Lin said.

His eyes were filled with fascination as he looked at the bizarre patterns on the sword.

Having worked as a blacksmith for most of his life and forged countless weapons, this was the first time he had seen the patterns of a true divine weapon.

Lu Qing was also concentrating on the rough long sword.

Then, amidst the rich red light, a barely detectable ray of purple light emerged into his field of vision.

[Divine weapon blank: Made from meteorite iron, forged over ten thousand times through hammering, this blade blank has reached the top level of divine weapons. “

Inclusive: The celestial meteorite is a unique material, extremely inclusive. This blade blank can accommodate the power characteristics of multiple elements, including metal, wood, water, earth, wind, fire, thunder, and lightning. ]

[Indestructible: This blade blank is incredibly strong. Once truly sharpened, it can cut through iron like mud, cut through water, and split mountains with ease. ]

[Magic Weapon Embryo: Due to its exceptionally high quality, if properly nurtured and refined, this blade can continuously transform and evolve, potentially becoming a magical or spiritual weapon.]

“A hint of purple!”

Lu Qing was delighted by the information that appeared on the blade blank. It

was indeed a rare treasure that even the Lihuo Sect had coveted and highly praised.

This celestial meteorite, barely forged into a rough blank, already displayed a hint of purple supernatural energy.

Consider that the Qiankun Yiqi Bag in his hand and the Lihuo Cauldron in the Wei family’s underground cavern, two other spiritual weapons, were only purple.

One can only imagine the immense potential of this blade blank.

The information that appeared on the blade blank also demonstrated this.

Not only can it accommodate multiple types of power, but it can also continuously evolve and transform. It is truly miraculous.

Lu Qing naturally would not think that this was the result of his own forging skills.

Although the people in the Zhuxin Workshop admired him very much,

he was very self-aware.

His forging skills were actually just in their infancy, and compared to the great weapon refiners of the Lihuo Sect, they were far superior.

The reason why this blade blank could reach such a high quality was ninety-nine percent due to the miraculous nature of the meteorite itself.

Its material was simply too excellent.

“Divine weapon!”

The others standing outside opened their mouths wide when they heard the words of Master Lin.

Even Wei Xinghe was shocked and astonished.

Even their Wei family only had one weapon of the divine weapon level.

It was the sword used by their ancestor.

They did not expect Lu Qing to forge one so easily.

Perhaps even the true forging masters in Zhongzhou could not do this?

“Mr. Lu, do you still need our Zhuxinfang to help sharpen this knife?”

Master Lin’s attitude towards Lu Qing became more humble and he asked carefully.

“No, I have another use for this knife, so I won’t sharpen it for now. I’ll just need you to make me a scabbard.” Lu Qing shook his head.

After knowing the potential of the knife blank, it would be inappropriate to sharpen it rashly.

Moreover, a divine weapon like this no longer required manual sharpening.

Once Lu Qing truly refined it, its edge would naturally reveal itself, unparalleled in its sharpness.

“That’s easy, young master, rest assured. I’ll have the scabbard ready tomorrow and send it to your residence.”

Upon hearing Lu Qing’s response, Master Lin felt a mixture of disappointment and relief.

Honestly, if Lu Qing had truly entrusted him with the sharpening of this blade blank, he wouldn’t have dared.

After all, this was a divine weapon blank; even a master forger might spend his entire life crafting one.

He was just a mere forger, not even a master forger. How could he dare sharpen such a weapon?

He asked Master Lin for a piece of cloth, wrapped the blank, and slung it onto his back, preparing to leave with Wei Xinghe.

Lu Qing had originally intended to forge another sword for his master, but the meteorite iron was so extraordinary that simply forging a single blade blank consumed most of his energy.

Master’s sword will have to be reforged another day.

When Lu Qing and Wei Xinghe emerged from the Heart Forging Workshop, they saw a crowd gathered outside,

including some warriors of considerable caliber.

After a moment’s reflection, he realized that the noise he’d made while forging the blade blank had alerted some nearby interested individuals.

Without further explanation, he and Wei Xinghe departed.

Those waiting outside had initially wanted to inquire about what was going on inside the Heart Forging Workshop.

However, upon seeing Lu Qing and Wei Xinghe, they froze in shock, staring at them in stunned silence.

All previous thoughts vanished, and no one dared to raise them again.

So, until the two men left, no one dared to intervene, but simply watched them go in awe, refusing to move.

“Huh!”

Once Lu Qing and Wei Xinghe had completely vanished, the spies breathed a sigh of relief, exchanging bitter smiles through their sweat.

They no longer even dared to consider entering the Heart Forging Workshop to inquire about the situation.

It went without a doubt that the commotion at the Heart Forging Workshop all morning was definitely related to Lu Qing and Wei Xinghe.

Each of these two individuals held a more important position than the other.

Lu Qing, in particular, was now considered the most untouchable figure by various factions in the city. His weight even surpassed that of the Wei Mansion!

Who would dare to pry into their affairs?

If they discovered something they shouldn’t, it would be truly fatal.

Unaware, Lu Qing had been designated a taboo figure by the various factions in the city.

Over the next few days, after recovering his strength, he made two more trips to the Heart Forging Workshop.

Besides crafting some small items, he also used a piece of exotic iron from the Heart Forging Workshop’s collection to forge another Wanlian-grade divine sword for his master.

However, the potential of this divine sword was far inferior to his sword; it could only be considered an ordinary divine weapon, with little potential for evolution.

It wasn’t that Lu Qing didn’t want to forge a meteorite iron sword for his master as well.

But the remaining meteorite iron in his Qiankun Qi Bag was too large.

With his current abilities, cutting it would be too difficult.

Furthermore, the ignition fluid he had previously prepared had been almost completely consumed.

Without the cyan flames fueled by the ignition fluid, the furnace at the Heart Forging Workshop alone was simply unable to burn the meteorite iron.

Therefore, Lu Qingzhi had to settle for second best and spend a fortune to purchase a piece of exotic iron from Master Lin’s collection, to forge a modest divine weapon for his master.

Of course, even though it was a modest divine weapon, Doctor Chen was still delighted when he received this gift.

Even Wei Shanhai was astonished when he saw the sword.

He found it to be of the same quality as his own sword.

Upon learning that the divine weapon was forged by Lu Qing, Wei Shanhai was stunned and speechless for a long time.

After forging the divine sword, Lu Qing and the others stayed for several more days.

That day, they finally bid farewell to the Wei Mansion.
