Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

Chapter 59 Forging the Magic Sword (Please read on!)

The Fire Refining Stones that Lu Cheng'an found in the lava river were all raw stones. If he wanted to refine them into magical artifacts, he would need to temper them first.

"I've extracted a considerable amount of Fire Refined Stone from the lava river in these five days. Once I forge my own Blazing Flame Sword, I won't need to mine materials in the lava river for a long time!"

Lu Cheng'an looked at the fire-refined stones piled up on the banks of the lava river, carefully selected some, and after selecting enough raw stones to forge a Blazing Flame Sword, he put the rest of the fire-refined stones into his storage bag.

He then took the refining furnace out of his storage bag and began to refine the fire-refined gold and stone he had mined from the lava river.

Lu Cheng'an was more careful than before when refining these fire-refined stones, so it took him five days to complete the refining process.

After the fire-refining process was completed, he immediately began to refine the embryo of the Blazing Flame Sword.

He had refined the magic sword blank many times before. Although he put in a lot of effort this time, the time spent on refining it did not increase.

Once the magic sword blank is completed, the most crucial step is tempering.

This step is the most crucial one, as it truly determines the quality of the magic sword.

To this end, Lu Cheng'an carefully adjusted his condition for a day, and only when he felt that he was in the best condition did he begin to imprint the rune array on the artifact he had painstakingly crafted.

A mid-grade first-tier Flame Sword requires the imprinting of seven runes of four different types, while a high-grade first-tier Flame Sword requires the imprinting of twelve runes of six different types.

The two newly added rune arrays are Resilience and Penetration. One of these runes increases the resilience of the Flame Sword, while the other increases its armor-piercing effect.

In addition to the original four types of spirit gathering, flame spirit, sharpness and fire return, the number of rune arrays has reached six.

There are six types of rune arrays. Gathering Spirit, Flame Spirit, Sharpness, and Returning Fire each require two arrays, while the newly added Resilience and Penetrating Spirit only require one array.

Lu Cheng'an had long wanted to forge a magical artifact for his own use, and had therefore attempted to forge the Blazing Flame Sword many times before.

He already had considerable experience in successfully forging a first-tier superior-grade Flame Sword, and with the added bonus from his stats, he was very confident that he could successfully forge the Flame Sword.

Lu Cheng'an stood calmly on the bank of the lava river. After throwing the magic sword embryo into the refining furnace, he quickly cast a refining spell. Then, he closed his eyes tightly, released his divine sense, and began to manipulate his divine sense to imprint a rune array on the magic sword embryo.

The runes imprinted on magical artifacts can only be successfully imprinted by controlling the power of divine sense, which requires the artifact refiner to have a relatively strong power of divine sense.

Lu Cheng'an's spiritual power is much stronger than that of cultivators at the same level. After awakening the panel, his spiritual power was further enhanced.

This is also an important reason why he was able to become a first-class high-grade weapon refiner so quickly.

The branding array needs to be completed in one go. Lu Cheng'an's magic power and divine sense were enough to support him in completing this step. However, this time he branded it very carefully, so the speed was slightly slower.

It took him more than a day to successfully imprint all twelve talisman arrays.

At this moment, Lu Cheng'an felt slightly tired, but he did not rest. Instead, he immediately took the Fiery Blaze Sword, which had been tempered, out of the furnace and put it into the lava river for tempering.

Soon after, Lu Cheng'an took the Blazing Flame Sword out of the lava river. He quickly checked the changes in the runes inside the Blazing Flame Sword and, after confirming that there were no problems, he used the weapon-refining incantation to refine it again. Then he threw the Blazing Flame Sword back into the lava river.

After repeating this cycle ten times, Lu Cheng'an finally stopped.

"It's probably because it was tempered with lava river water that the tough runes broke down once. If it had been tempered with cold spring water, the effect would have been better!"

Lu Cheng'an held the completed Blazing Flame Sword in his hand. The entire sword was fiery red, with natural flame patterns appearing on its blade, making it look quite extraordinary. After carefully examining the Blazing Flame Sword, a satisfied smile appeared on Lu Cheng'an's face.

"The tempering process takes too long. Let's wait until it recovers before imprinting our divine sense imprint on it!"

Lu Cheng'an sighed softly, and after feeling the fatigue deep in his body, he suppressed his eager excitement.

After putting the refining furnace into his storage bag, he sat cross-legged on the bank of the lava river and began to meditate to recover.

Once Lu Cheng'an recovered his senses, his eager excitement completely disappeared. Instead of immediately taking out the Blazing Flame Sword, he began to cultivate his inner energy.

Only after he finished his daily cultivation did he take out the Blazing Flame Sword and begin to imprint his divine sense mark on it.

This magic sword was personally crafted by Lu Cheng'an, who felt an affinity for the artifact, making the process of imprinting his divine sense on it very smooth.

After Lu Cheng'an finished imprinting his divine sense, he formed a hand seal, and the fiery red Blazing Flame Sword flew up, leaving a trail of fiery red light above the lava river before landing back in Lu Cheng'an's palm a moment later.

"Next, I will take some time to return to my clan and choose a sword control technique. Only by using the sword control technique to activate the Blazing Flame Sword can I fully unleash its power."

Lu Cheng'an's gaze fell on the Blazing Flame Sword in his hand, his heart filled with anticipation.

Once his cultivation breaks through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he can reforge the Blazing Flame Sword and upgrade its grade to the second-tier low-grade.

Then he will be able to fly on his sword and fulfill his long-cherished wish.

Cultivators at the Qi Refining stage cannot fly by controlling objects. Firstly, their own magical power is insufficient, and secondly, a first-tier magical artifact is not enough to support this.

The yellow paper crane that Lu Cheng'an rode was itself a flying talisman, so it didn't require any activation from the cultivator.

"I've crafted too many Blazing Flame Swords. I'll be using this Blazing Flame Sword myself from now on, so I can't keep calling it a Blazing Flame Sword!"

Lu Cheng'an frowned slightly as he began to think of a suitable name.

A moment later, a name surfaced in Lu Cheng'an's mind.

"Fire Demon Sword!"

Lu Cheng'an smiled. The reason he named it Fire Fiend was because this magic sword would exhibit some characteristics of Fire Fiend energy in the future.

After all, he was the one who activated this magic sword, so the power it displayed would naturally release fire-evil energy.

A moment later, Lu Cheng'an put the Fire Fiend Sword into his storage bag. Without wasting any time, he quickly began to forge a refined iron magic sword.

The iron ore needed to forge the refined iron magic sword does not need to be quenched by him; these quenched iron ore are all sent from the Lu family.
