Different swordsmiths had different processes, but the first step was always the same, which was to make the mold.
After all, without a mold to shape the metal, it was impossible to start forging.
Unless they were all big shots of cultivation and could be controlled by their divine sense.
Therefore, every swordsmith was an exceptional clay craftsman who could use clay to make the mold he wanted.
This time, Liu Yun was making a sword model.
Under Li Yun's constant stroking, a sword model quickly appeared.
However, Liu Yun did not continue.
He looked at the dark sky and felt his empty stomach. He placed the sword model on the forging table and left after waiting for it to solidify.
The next day, Liu Yun woke up at dawn.
Although he really wanted to sleep until three poles a day, it was obviously not possible at this time of the year.
Liu Yun was sitting cross-legged on the bed. At this moment, he was circulating his inner energy according to the route of the Crimson Fire Divine Technique.
With every cycle, his internal strength would grow stronger and become purer.
Every morning's cultivation had become Liu Yun's morning lesson. He knew that if he wanted to establish himself in this world, strength was everything.
When he circulated his internal energy to eighty-one cycles, he felt that all the meridians in his body had reached their limits. Only then did Liu Yun stop and open his eyes.
After a hasty breakfast, he went straight to the blacksmith shop in Qixia Town.
"Boss, do you have any bronze stones?”
" Splash stuff? Bronze stones?" Blacksmith Zhou was stunned when he heard Liu Yun's question. Then, he looked at Liu Yun with some doubt and said,"I know about bronze, but I've never heard of bronze stone. Are you talking about the copper mine?"
Although bronze and bronze stone looked very similar, they were completely different.
Bronze was a type of alloy formed from pure copper and tin or lead.
However, bronze stone was a type of ore that could only be found in a certain area.
"Bronze stone is a kind of ore that looks very similar to bronze. Have you never heard of it?”
"No, I haven't." Blacksmith Zhou shook his head.
This made Liu Yun frown slightly, and his heart sank.
Although Blacksmith Zhou was just an ordinary blacksmith, he definitely had a certain understanding of metals.
Even if he had never seen some extremely rare metals before, he should have heard of them.
However, even blacksmiths had never heard of it. Either there was no such ore in this world, or there was no such ore in the Ming Dynasty.
This time, Liu Yun did not even go to Blessing Inn. He directly returned to Sword Crafting Manor.
Looking at the completed sword model, Liu Yun frowned slightly. In the end, he sighed helplessly and asked the system,"System, give me 20 catties of bronze stones.”
Although Blacksmith Zhou had never even heard of Bronze Stones, the system had one.
However, the system was not cheap. Usually, even one tael of refined iron could be bought at a blacksmith's shop for 20 catties of pig iron. Even refined iron could be bought for 10 catties or 8 catties.
However, in the system, one jin of bronze stones cost 1,000 taels of silver. This was enough to buy 20,000 jin of pig iron.
Liu Yun, who only had 20,000 taels left, could only buy 20 catties from the system. He could only forge 10 swords with about 2 catties.
Forging a sword was not a one-time success, so Liu Yun was prepared to buy more.
The system could not bargain, but humans could.
Moreover, he asked the system if there were bronze stones in this world, so Liu Yun went to the blacksmith shop to ask.
In the end, he did not expect Blacksmith Zhou in the Blacksmith Shop to not know anything. This made Liu Yun have no choice but to buy it from the system.
Ten rounds, only ten chances.
Liu Yun did not use the 20 pounds of bronze stones immediately. Instead, he put them aside.
He decided that he would use the bronze stone later. For now, he would use the refined iron that he had reforged to practice.
As for the sword model, he used the one he made yesterday.
Liu Yundong stroked the sword model gently. At this moment, a sentence could not help but ring in his heart.
The sword was famous, but the sword was nameless. The Hero's Sword, the Hero of Swords.
This sword could be said to be the most righteous sword. However, such a righteous sword had a miserable ending.
However, this time, he wanted to make this sword that was filled with Righteousness resound in this world again.
The flames in the furnace burned fiercely. Liu Yun instantly went to the pile of refined iron, picked up two pieces of refined iron, and threw them into the furnace.
The True Qi of the Crimson Fire Divine Technique was channeled into the furnace by Liu Yun.
This was what the system had told Liu Yun when he was forging the throwing knives. The Red Fire Divine Art was extremely strong and yang. Its scorching internal strength could make the flames in the furnace even fiercer and make the refined iron melt faster.
However, Liu Yun did not send it all in at once. Instead, he sent it bit by bit.
After all, he was only at the first step of the Crimson Fire Divine Technique. If it was Scarlet Flame, it could make the refined iron melt faster.
Soon, under the dual attack of the iron flame in the wok and Liu Yun's Crimson Fire Divine Art, it quickly turned red. Then, it slowly began to soften and finally melted into molten iron.
Scorching heat was constantly emitted from the furnace, and even the surrounding air began to distort due to the rising temperature.
However, Liu Yun did not seem to feel anything. His eyes were fixed on the sword-forging furnace not far away.
Finally, when the refined iron completely melted into molten iron, Liu Yun instantly stopped his cultivation.
After placing the passage into the furnace, Liu Yun tilted the pan and poured out the molten iron.
The molten iron flowed into the sword mold along the pipe. After the molten iron completely flowed into the sword mold, it was time to wait.
After the red liquid iron melted, it would be the sword embryo of the Hero Sword.
At this point, the real forging process would begin.
Time slowly passed. As the scarlet color in the sword model faded, it finally turned into a rather dark appearance.
Although it looked a little ugly, it was the embryonic form of a sword.
After taking out the sword embryo from the sword mold, it was time for him to get really tired.
