The days of cultivation were days of hard work, and time passed the fastest. In the blink of an eye, it was already Wednesday noon. After a hasty lunch, Dedale quickly slipped out of the house and disappeared into the crowd. Today was the day that Dedale and Uncle Aya had agreed on.
After three mornings, Dedale finally succeeded in setting the time to wake up at five o'clock. At the same time, Dedale also gained an hour and a half of morning training time. Although it wasn't much, Dedale had made good use of it. An hour of running and 30 minutes of Agonia Throwing. Dedale was very happy with his training. He could feel the little changes in his body and the little improvements. For Dedale, who was determined to become the overlord of Ninja World, there was nothing more exciting than this.
Over the next two days, Grandpa Tu Ying taught everyone everything he could, including the precise control of Chakra's climbing and treading on water, as well as the Ninjutsu scrolls related to Earth Evasion, Fire Evasion, and Wind Evasion. Grandpa Tu Ying's intention was very obvious. He wanted to be a hands-off manager. He had basically taught the three of them everything they could. How long they could walk on the path of ninjas in the future depended entirely on their talent and hard work.
After obtaining the three Chakra scrolls, Dedale began to study them tirelessly. As of now, Dedale had already mastered the Earth Evasion Ninjutsu, the Mind Beheading Technique, and the Earth Flow Wall. Fire Escape Ninjutsu was the simplest Grand Fireball Technique. Wind Escape Ninjutsu was a huge breakthrough. In just two short days, he had mastered one D-grade and three C-grade ninjutsu. Dedale's super talent once again shocked the three of them.
If he hadn't been learning how to sculpt clay, Dedale would have been cultivating with the stimulated Black Earth and Red Earth. But thinking about his future battle path and how powerful and handsome Detonating Clay was, Dedale became determined. It seemed like a waste of time now, but it would be a hundred percent return in the future.
By the time Dedale arrived at Uncle Aya's shop, there was no one else inside.
Seeing this, Dedale's blue eyes lit up. There was no one in the shop, so it seemed that no one would disturb today's clay styling. Thinking of this, Dedale immediately rushed into the shop.
"Uncle Aya, I'm here. You haven't forgotten our agreement, right?”Dedale asked worriedly as he arrived in front of Uncle Aya, who was tidying up his clay work.
"So it's Little Deeny. Haha, how can I forget what I promised you? I've been waiting for you for a long time. I heard that you were injured during your cultivation last week. Is it true? Are your injuries serious?”Seeing Dedale appear, Uncle Aya smiled happily. This kid really wanted to learn clay modeling and didn't let down his many days of preparation.
"Yes, I've fully recovered a long time ago. Because of his injury, he couldn't come last Sunday. I hope Uncle Aya doesn't mind.”Dedale nodded and apologized.
"Haha, it's fine. You, on the other hand, have to be more careful when you cultivate in the future. In the matter of cultivation, you have to be stable. If you are too eager for quick success and instant benefits, you will not have a good ending.”Aya once again talked about the great principles with Dedale, but they were all concerned about Dedale, so Dedale humbly accepted them.
"Alright, let's begin the lesson. Come inside with me.”Uncle Aya didn't want to waste any more time. He waved at Dedale and walked towards the small wooden door.
The small wooden door opened, revealing a different world inside. As soon as Dedale stepped in, he felt hot air hit his face. An uncomfortable feeling spread throughout his body, and his face turned red. The wooden door separated them, and the temperature was more than ten degrees.
After standing for a while, Dedale slowly got used to the hot and stuffy air. There was nothing he could do about it. The clay that was made could only become solid after being burned at high temperatures. This small secret room was used for production, so the furnace could only be placed here. All other processes could only be carried out under such difficult conditions.
As an outstanding clay stylist, he was used to such temperatures. Uncle Aya's expression didn't change, and Dedale, who was optimistic about the harsh environment as a form of willpower training, slowly relaxed.
Seeing Dedale silently endure it, Aya nodded in satisfaction. If one wanted to become an outstanding stylist, one had to have the spirit to endure hardship. When he was burning, his entire body felt like it was on fire, and his sweat was pouring down like rain. If he couldn't even endure this little bit of temperature, what should he do then?
Seeing the ventilation window above his head, Dedale secretly let out a sigh of relief. He could still tolerate the high temperature, but he couldn't die from lack of oxygen due to lack of ventilation. "Dedale's worries are groundless. Clay sculpting has existed since the founding of Hidden Rock Village. It has been so many years, so I don't need a little thing like you to care about what I should pay attention to.
"Little Deeny, can you bear it?" Uncle Aya asked with concern. It was normal to feel uncomfortable when it was the first time coming in. After ten times, this feeling would basically disappear.
"Not bad, Uncle. Let's start.”Dedale nodded and urged.
"Yes, clay modeling is generally divided into seven procedures: refining the soil, forming, decorating, air-drying, baking, glaze, and glaze firing.”Aya nodded and gave Dedale a general explanation." And we only pay attention to the first five steps. The last two steps are only used to make the clay work colorful, and they are rarely used in Hidden Rock Village, which advocates simplicity. Of the first five steps, we only need to pay attention to four of them, which are refining the soil, forming, decorating, and roasting. The wind drying process is to place the completed work on the shelf and dry it naturally. It usually takes about a week. This doesn't require us to spend any effort. So, as long as you learn the four steps I just said, you can graduate.”
"There are only four steps. No wonder Uncle said last time that he could basically master it in an afternoon.”Dedale nodded and memorized it.
"Little Deeny, you can't underestimate these four steps. Excellent clay stylists spend decades on these four steps to create outstanding works that attract worldwide attention.”Aya didn't forget to give Dedale a warning.
"Got it, uncle. Quickly explain these four steps to me.”Dedale nodded seriously and urged again.
"Haha, there's no rush. Let's take it slow. The first step was to refine the clay, which was very simple. It was to expel the air in the clay that was going to be made into a work piece. If there was air in the clay, it would cause the work to explode during firing, resulting in all the previous work being wasted. The second was shaping. Using the hands or various tools on the table, the clay was shaped into the shape you wanted. The next step was to decorate it. He used some small tools to precisely process the work to make it look more exquisite and beautiful. Finally, it was the vegetarian fire. Under the high temperature of 900 degrees, the product was burned. After it was completed, a piece of work was officially released.”
