Seeking recommendation votes. Tang Wulin recalled the knowledge he had about Heavy Silver as he picked up his pair of Thousand Refined tungsten hammers.
The cold handle of the tungsten steel hammer made Tang Wulin feel refreshed. The dispiritedness of the past few days seemed to have disappeared at this moment. There was only one word in his mind: Thousand Refined.
The Thousand Refined tungsten hammers were pitch-black, but if one looked closely, one would notice that the petal-like patterns on the hammers were unique to the Thousand Refinements.
After burning it in the forging furnace for half an hour, the Heavy Silver finally reached a temperature suitable for forging.
The Heavy Silver rose once again. Tang Wulin extended his Thousand Refined tungsten hammers with both hands, and his gaze instantly became focused. He raised the hammer in his right hand and lightly knocked on the Heavy Silver, producing a crisp "ding ding" sound.
This strike was called a hammer test. Before a blacksmith started forging, they would use this method to check the toughness of the metal being forged.
Mang Tian secretly nodded his head when he saw how focused he was. This child's comprehension ability was very high. Otherwise, he would not have been able to lay down such an excellent foundation in just three years. He was calm and steady, but he was also very smart. He was the most suitable person to inherit his mantle.
The Thousand Refinements in front of him was undoubtedly a very important test for him. Through his previous observations of Tang Wulin, Mang Tian believed that it was possible for him to complete the Thousand Refinements. This was especially so after his strength had increased. His body was no longer able to hinder him from completing the Thousand Refinements.
He was only nine years old this year. If he could complete the Thousand Refinements, he would probably break a new record. The current record for Thousand Refinements in the Blacksmith's Association was held by a Saint Craftsman. He was eleven years old, three months, and two days old.
Of course, Tang Wulin didn't know what Mang Tian was thinking. He was completely focused on the Heavy Silver in front of him.
He raised the hammer in his left hand and smashed it against the edge of the Heavy Silver. The entire Heavy Silver jumped slightly, and the hammer in his right hand fell like lightning and smashed on the other side.
Even though he had never Thousand Refined a metal before, he had already produced too many hundred refined metal parts. Regardless of how the Thousand Refinements were done, he had to first complete the Hundred Refinements and purify the metal. In the process of Hundred Refinements, he would be able to comprehend its characteristics.
Usually, Tang Wulin did not forge such a high-grade rare metal. This was his first time forging Heavy Silver, so he wanted to feel the metal's characteristics first.
He raised his hammers and began to continue forging. He did not use his full strength, and only used thirty to forty percent of his strength to swing the Thousand Refined tungsten hammers.
For a moment, sparks flew in all directions. The rhythmic knocking sounded like cheerful percussion music in the forging room.
Very quickly, he had finished hammering. Just like how the Thousand Refinements required more than a thousand strikes, the Hundred Refinements required more than a hundred strikes. Instead, it was to remove the impurities inside the metal and increase the density of the metal without destroying the internal structure.
Tang Wulin could feel the strength of this rare metal after a hundred strikes. First of all, the toughness of Heavy Silver surpassed all the metals he had forged before. Furthermore, it was extremely elastic. When he hammered it down, the rebound force was instantly transmitted, as if the Heavy Silver was resisting his strength.
Fortunately, Tang Wulin did not use his full strength to forge the hammers. He had sufficient strength to control the rebounding forging hammers.
Ordinary metals would be dented by a thousand pound, forty kilogram Thousand Refined tungsten hammer, but even if Heavy Silver was red-hot, it would only slightly change shape. Even Hundred Refinements of such a rare metal would not be an easy task.
Tang Wulin was filled with patience after three years of forging. He was not anxious at all. Even if he couldn't Thousand Refine such a good piece of metal, he had to Hundred Refine it.
It was as if he was protecting a precious treasure. Not only did his hammering power not increase, but it also slightly restrained. Through continuous hammering, he determined the patterns of the Heavy Silver and felt its characteristics, slowly purifying it.
Mang Tian's usually stern face gradually revealed a smile. This child was truly intelligent. He did not give him any hints, but he was still able to find his own rhythm.
When dealing with rare metals, one should treat them as if they were the women they loved. They should take care of them during the forging process and not blindly attack them. The surface of a rare metal was tough, but once the internal veins were damaged, its characteristics would be affected to a certain extent.
Although it would take more time to use a small amount of strength, this was undoubtedly the safest method. Especially when one was not familiar with a rare metal, one could become more familiar with it and feel the changes in its internal structure through long-term forging.
Tang Wulin became more and more focused on forging. His entire person gradually entered a wondrous state. There was nothing else besides the Heavy Silver in front of him. His soul power and strength had both increased, increasing his stamina and concentration.
What he didn't know was that after experiencing that pain, his spiritual power had also increased to a certain extent.
It was not easy for spiritual power to show its effects below the Spirit Connection realm, but it was actually everywhere. No matter how good one's comprehension ability was, one needed sufficient mental support to be able to sustain it.
The elevation of his spiritual power had undoubtedly allowed Tang Wulin to be more focused during forging. The time he could focus on forging had also increased. His spiritual power was able to reach thirty-eight points during the Spirit Pagoda's test because of his three years of focused forging.
An hour had passed, and the Heavy Silver only looked slightly deformed. There weren't many changes.
Two hours had passed, and the Thousand Refined tungsten hammers had become even more concentrated.
Tang Wulin's forehead was already covered in sweat. His body was already extremely exhausted from his concentration and continuous forging. However, his spirit was unusually excited. He had not achieved any results in the past two hours. He was still far from Hundred Refined. However, in these four hours, he had also gradually completed his interaction with the Heavy Silver.
If one looked closely, one would notice that there were small dents in every corner of the Heavy Silver. Each dent was circular and of the same size. Every corner of it had been hammered countless times by the Thousand Refined tungsten hammer.
Every time it was knocked back, the sound produced by every knock, and the vibration of its body when it was knocked, it was telling Tang Wulin about its characteristics.
"Clang!" Mang Tian raised his eyebrows at the sound of the blow, which was clearly stronger than before.
Immediately after, the loud sounds of forging rang out one after another. Tang Wulin finally began to exert his strength!
After two hours of careful feeling, he had already figured out the characteristics of this piece of metal. It was time to really forge it.
With every strike, his body would begin to move, starting from his calf muscles. The force would then extend to his waist, back, arms, and finally, the Thousand Refined tungsten hammer would fall. Every time he hammered, the force exceeded 300 kilograms.
The furnace fire intensity button was at the bottom, and he gently raised it with his left foot. The furnace fire was turned to the maximum, and orange flames spewed out from the surrounding spouts. The orange flames burned the already red Heavy Silver. For mobile phone users, please browse aiquxs.com for a better reading experience.
