People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 198 Refined Through Trials and Tribulations (Twelfth Update! 5480 Monthly Tickets Added! Requesting Monthly Tickets!)

Li Changqing fell silent upon hearing Chen Tiexin's words.

Indeed, they were all people from nearly a hundred years ago, and they were already on the verge of death.

But in the end, they still left some traces and a legacy in this world.

Afterwards, Chen Tiexin led the group to the inner room. In the innermost room, there was an altar, but instead of a deity or ancestral tablet, it was enshrined a large hammer.

"You two just wait outside."

Chen Tiexin stopped the dark-skinned young man and Li Changqing at the door, and then led Li Qi into the house alone.

In front of the incense table were two prayer cushions. Chen Tiexin first gestured for Li Qi to sit down, and then said, "Unleash your energy and spirit. I want to observe your form and spirit in order to construct a divine weapon!"

"Famous artifacts" is a popular term nowadays. In ancient times, the so-called divine weapons and sharp tools were famous artifacts made of precious iron.

Upon hearing this, Li Qi naturally did not refuse. With a slight thought, as Li Qi's spirit ceased to be restrained, an invisible pressure instantly filled the space within a radius of several dozen meters. The powerful spirit combined with the strong physical body released a life magnetic field that conveyed a great terror to all living beings around!
Outside the room, Li Changqing sensed this powerful aura. Without even closing his eyes, a picture of a blood-red aura surging and overflowing in his mind spontaneously appeared. It could be described as a demon as the sky and a tyrant as blood!

This caused a huge uproar in his heart. Even he had not expected that Li Qi's spirit and energy would be so terrifying after he stopped restraining himself. What he had seen before was probably less than one-tenth of the truth.

"So this is what it means to be blessed with great fortune. In such a short time, you've undergone a complete transformation... But such great fortune may not be all good things..."

Li Changqing thought to himself.

Great fortune and great calamity, great success and great failure. If he were young, he would naturally feel that the greater the fortune, the better. But now he knows that those who can survive are the true heroes. If one dies in the middle, one is just a skeleton.

Beside Li Changqing, the curious young man was suddenly terrified and retreated step by step. This young man's martial arts were close to the advanced level, but his true form was still a little lacking. His martial arts and mental strength were both good, but at this moment, he felt that every cell and every thought of his was reminding him of the danger here, and he instinctively wanted to stay away.

However, at this moment, the one who felt it most deeply was Chen Tiexin. He never expected that Li Qi's spirit and energy would be so terrifying when he fully unleashed them. He hadn't even entered the Dao yet, but he had already honed such a mind and such spirit.

He was a man who had experienced countless bloodshed and fire, but at this moment, he could not suppress the turmoil in his heart.

Fortunately, he was a person who had entered the Dao and had traveled quite a distance on this path. After a brief moment of mental turmoil, he began to inscribe the form and spirit. At first, in his mind's reflection, Li Qi was still a person, but later, he gradually transformed into rough lines. Then, the lines were continuously simplified until finally, they turned into a knife.

It was at this moment that Chen Tie was moved. He closed his eyes, first picked up the precious iron that had been placed on the altar, then picked up the hammer that was offered on it, carried it on his back, and then, without opening his eyes, went to the back of the house and took out various metal blocks from a cabinet with many drawers.

Then, Chen Tiexin went to the foundry, turned on the furnace, and blue flames shot out, instantly causing the temperature in the room to soar. As the saying goes, a furnace fire is perfected, and blue flames are undoubtedly a good fire.

In ancient times, obtaining a good fire was not easy, unlike now, where the required temperature can be achieved effortlessly.

The group followed at this time, but they only stood at the door and did not get close, so as not to disturb Chen Tiexin.

Chen Tiexin first put down the various metal blocks, then used pliers to hold the precious iron and placed it on the blue flame to heat it until it turned red-hot. Only then did he place it on the iron felt. Finally, he raised the hammer on his back high, first inhaled sharply, then his whole body was filled with blood and his skin turned blood red.

The other party remained motionless for several seconds, and then, the silver bottle shattered and water gushed out. The large iron hammer in his hand transformed into a storm of wind and rain, thunder and lightning, frantically striking the precious iron.

A fierce wind blew, thunder roared, and metal vibrated. At this moment, Li Qi closed his eyes and sensed with his mind. He felt that the force was continuous, endless, and boundless.

More than ten minutes passed before Chen Tiexin suddenly stopped. At this moment, the black precious iron shrank by almost half. To the naked eye, it appeared to be glowing, but when Li Qi sensed it with his mind, he discovered that the translucent precious iron was now carrying a faint blue glow.

Undoubtedly, Chen Tiexin used some special technique, not only hammering away the impurities in the iron, but also purifying and concentrating certain special elements within it.

Indeed, there is no pure matter in this world that can be directly controlled by the mind, but there is an element that is compatible with the mind. However, this element may not be matter; it is very likely a special thing that exhibits a wave-particle duality.

At this moment, Li Qi sensed this change, and naturally, various theories he had seen before surfaced in his mind. He then extracted the one that seemed most likely.

At this moment, Chen Tiexin did not stop. He used professional tools to precisely cut the various metal blocks he had taken earlier, measuring them down to the milligram. He heated each of these metal blocks until they were red-hot, and then stacked them with precious iron in a certain order, continuously hammering them to make them blend together.

Some of these metals were pure metallic elements, while others were alloys that were only produced in small quantities in some cutting-edge laboratories. The various metals fused together and constantly melted and changed, giving Li Qi a sense of the fusion of all things.

Just like the earliest ocean, which was a pot of hot soup, a mixture of everything, the first life was born in it, and when thunder fell, life appeared.

But now, along this path, fire and hammering have replaced the effects of thunder...

Chen Tiexin hammered together various metal blocks and precious iron for several hours. Afterward, he continuously heated it with a flame, took it out and hammered it, then heated it again and hammered it again. Over and over again, the shape of the knife gradually took shape. It was actually the same style and size as the wooden knife that Li Qi used to practice with, but the material and color were completely different.

Even after the famous sword was forged, Chen Tiexin did not use the turning process to remove the excess parts of the sword. Instead, he used a hammer to make the sword look like a natural masterpiece!
