Mecha Star Wars.

Chapter 1196 Jian Cheng
In terms of strength alone, no one can match the physical cultivator.

Mu Jingjing swung her arm and hit the red broken sword hard again and again.

The crisp sound of metal knocking rose and fell, forming a brisk rhythm, drawing everyone's attention to the sparks flying from the anvil.

However, forging is a repetitive and extremely boring process.

At first, Jin Tong stood behind Lin Fan enthusiastically and fanned her.

Just watching her burning, stacking, and quenching the two materials over and over again, all the novelty disappeared, and the hand holding the fan gradually became unable to fan the air.

"How many more times do I have to fight?" She wiped the sweat off her forehead and fanned herself twice, but all she blew was hot air. "Steel is made by tempering a hundred times. This has already exceeded a hundred times!"

Aohen, who was responsible for delivering powerful firepower, also began to feel the strain, and his smile had long since disappeared.

"Folding is a basic process to remove excess impurities and increase the elasticity and toughness of the material." Lin Fan explained while concentrating on beating the material in front of him. "It's like kneading dough. Repeated folding and rolling can make the dough more uniform and delicate. The same is true for refining tools. After repeated folding, the quality of the final forged tool can be uniform. The patterns on the finished product are also derived from this."

"I have seen the forging process of many weapon refiners. In the early stages, they also repeatedly folded and hammered like you, but why didn't they have such obvious patterns as on your dagger?" Du Xingyu asked.

"It has something to do with the characteristics of the forging material, the number of times it is put into the fire, and the number of times it is stacked." Lin Fan switched the material again, and Mu Jingjing began to sweat profusely. "Generally speaking, for the same forging material, the more times it is stacked, the finer the material, the fewer impurities, and the finer the texture. But the world believes that flawless white jade is the ultimate beauty, and the texture is not only not beautiful, but also reveals weaknesses. So even if there are textures, the refiner will polish off the surface texture in the later stage so that it is not easily noticeable."

"So now, you want to melt two different forging materials into one sword?" Ling Yichen asked, "But you refine the sword thousands of times to remove impurities, purify the materials, and maximize the power of the forged object. Now adding different materials, isn't it equivalent to artificially adding more impurities?"

"So what do you think of my dagger with impurities added to it?" Lin Fan did not stop and put the pliers into the water, stirring up a large cloud of white smoke.

Ling Yichen choked.

His sword has been broken, what else can he do?

"What people pursue is to purify the materials, remove impurities, and make the forged objects exert their maximum power. But in my opinion, appropriate 'impurities' are not a bad thing. Just like your thunder stone, it looks hard, but it is actually very brittle and easy to break. Even after repeated quenching, the forging material becomes more elastic, but its inherent disadvantages cannot be eliminated by repeated forging. For those who understand this property, destruction is easy." Lin Fan threw the cooled material back into the fire and replaced it with another piece and placed it on the anvil.

This is the terrifying thing about weapon refiners. Not only can they create powerful magic weapons, but they can also destroy them more easily than others.

Of course, this is relative. Not all weapon refiners can do what Lin Fan did, breaking a sword with one move.

"Although the toughness of the black crystal meteorite is not enough, it is extremely tough." Yu Sinian slowly shook the fan, "The shortcomings of the two can complement each other. When combined, they can create a more perfect weapon. So blindly pursuing a single purity may not be the best solution."

Be it refining equipment or anything else.

Just like Lin Fan’s “Five Spiritual Roots”.

It is said that a single spiritual root has the best talent, but in fact, Lin Fan, this little junior sister who has only been a student for a year, beats these proud children who once thought highly of themselves in all aspects.

Of course, Lin Fan should not have five spiritual roots, but it is obvious that she definitely does not have a single spiritual root.

"Each forging material has its own unique properties, just like everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Blindly pursuing a single purity may not be the best choice." Lin Fan's small hammer and Mu Jingjing's big hammer fell alternately, and the narrow sword gradually became curved. "But we need to analyze the specific situation. I always believe that the way of refining equipment and the way of refining pills are connected, and what matters is matching and balance. The interaction of different materials can stimulate the greatest potential."

"Of course, all of these require attempts, and attempts will bring more possibilities. The experience of predecessors is good, but sometimes blindly following in their footsteps will also limit you to the experience of predecessors. If you don't try, how do you know if it works and whether there will be better possibilities?"

This sentence was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing quite a stir in the hearts of everyone present.

Everyone in Changtian Sect immediately thought of Lingxi and the runes on it. Lin Fan's so-called attempt had already been realized.

It is said that there are few masters of mechanism in the world because it is not easy to practice, but now it seems that most people do not have their kind of breakthrough and innovative ideas, right?
Ling Yichen was dumbfounded, and somehow he thought of everything about Taixu Palace.

Aohen stared at the materials burning red in the fire and fell into deep thought. After the materials were burned, the required firepower gradually decreased.

Lin Fan used a fierce fire to leave a fire rune on both sides of the semi-finished blank of Thunder God Stone.

Next, the black crystal meteorite was divided into two parts. After the three parts of the refined material were beaten into a rough shape, the black crystal meteorite was used to wrap the thunder stone and forged together.

"Don't we stack them together to increase strength?" Ling Yichen asked.

"Different situations require different treatments." Lin Fan replied, "The sword body is made of Thunder God Stone, which has better toughness and lower hardness, to enhance its strength, and the outer surface is wrapped with Black Crystal Meteorite, which has a higher hardness, to ensure that the blade remains sharp. The inner and outer lines are staggered, and even a god cannot break your sword."

Lin Fan said the most arrogant words in the most indifferent tone. Although Ling Yichen didn't believe it, he was confused by her appearance and suddenly felt a little expectant.

but……

"Why is this sword so curved?" he asked with a frown.

I thought it was a forging process, but as Mu Jingjing also changed the small hammer, after repeated forging and quenching, the shape of the sword was determined, and it was not a common shape.

"Is it the five elements specially made for you?" Shen Xiuyuan said, "Wood produces fire, so there are fire patterns engraved on the Thunder God Stone. After your spiritual power is input, the fire will promote the earth attribute of the Thunder God Stone and stimulate the gold attribute of the outer layer. This flowing water-like shape should be water. Gold produces water, water produces wood, and it goes around and feeds back to you..."

The earth and wood properties, which originally restrained each other, formed a cycle after Lin Fan's tossing and turning, which was of great benefit to Ling Yichen.

This is a tailor-made weapon!
Even though Lin Fan's cultivation was still shallow, and this sword was limited by her cultivation, and its power was not as strong as that of a Jindan or Yuanying weapon refiner, her ingenuity alone was enough to give us a glimpse of her future achievements.

"Really?" Ling Yichen couldn't believe it. The person who broke his sword was actually making it for him.

Of course not true.

Lin Fan was speechless. It was just the appearance. She just thought of the Malay Kris sword, one of the three famous blades of Lanxing, based on the forging method, and did it casually.

Of course, the water attribute cannot be achieved just by appearance.

She tapped her fingertips lightly, and the trickle of water condensed into a sword-blade-shaped ball of water, wrapping around the already forged sword.

With the nourishment of the water flow, the steam dissipated, and light lines appeared on the white sword, like vines with leaves, wrapping around the sword and extending to the handle.

"Concentrate the handle." Lin Fan pointed the bare hilt towards Ling Yichen.

"Oh oh." Ling Yichen agreed repeatedly, and loosely grasped the handle. The wooden handle was formed instantly and firmly embedded in the sword body.

Ling Yichen suddenly felt a connection between himself and the sword. He was delighted but also asked in confusion, "That's not right. Why haven't I seen any lightning? Where did the lightning from my Thunder God Stone go?"

It had been taken away by Lin Fan a long time ago.

However, since Lin Fan had successfully forged the sword for the first time, she naturally wanted to make it perfect. She had already given it the water attribute, and it wouldn't hurt to add some lightning power.

So, she flicked the tip of the sword with her fingertips, and suddenly a blue-purple arc of electricity appeared on the silver sword. Amid the crackling sound, the Broken Sky Sword seemed to have come to life, with dazzling electric light surrounding the sword body.

Ling Yichen looked at the new Sky-Broken Sword with a unique shape and arcs of electricity on the blade, and couldn't help but be fascinated. He raised his hand slightly, and the Sky-Broken Sword pointed directly at the sky, with a special shape and bright electric light, as if it was really going to split the clouds and cut off the sky.

Ao Hen, who was finally liberated, sat quietly on the ground, silently watching the arc jumping on the Duanxiao Sword, then turned to Lin Fan's slender fingers, his eyes seemed to contain some deep meaning.
